In reading your report, it's clear that in several instances.... I look at the natural resources department, where it says,“All but the most routine requests are held up in the minister's office”.
Now, on Tuesday, we had the PMO chief of staff, Mr. Giorno, before this committee, and he stated quite clearly that when ministers' offices receive information on ATIP requests it is for information purposes only. However, if you look at the Canadian Food Inspection Agency, it clearly states, “All records on topics of great public interest had to be approved by the president...”. But Giorno said it was for information purposes only, so what's your understanding of the situation?
