Thanks very much.

In the overlap of requests that would touch a couple of departments or maybe touch something in PCO, do you have to share the request with other departments? How often would you have to send it to PCO in order to find out whether or not it can be released?

The refusal rate in the report card at 36.9% seems awfully high. What percentage of that is your own assessment within the department and what refusals were done at PCO or other places?

See context to find out what was said next.
