Laurie Hawn at the Access to Information, Privacy and Ethics Committee

Thank you, Chair.

Thank you all for being here.

I'm going to ask you both a motherhood question—I recognize it's motherhood—and anybody can define the word “reasonable” the way they like. Do you think it is logical that all departments, big or small, DND or smaller offices like yours, should operate in as lean and efficient a manner as reasonably possible?
