On my next question, you can either consider it specifically at committee this morning--there were certainly individuals named--or put together a hypothetical situation as if this had happened.
The specifics became very clear this morning at another committee, where lobbyist Andy Gibbons stated that he received the report from Kelly Block's assistant on November 18. He transmitted a paragraph of a summary of that evidence to a client, Merck Frosst. He also stated that he informed the committee about this on November 23, five days later.
I have two questions, and you can consider them hypothetically. First, the fact that he shared part of this confidential report with a client is a concern. What are your thoughts on that aspect of it? Second, it took this registered lobbyist more than five days to report this to the committee. Could those two points be considered a breach of the lobbyists' code of conduct?
