Thanks very much.

I first want to make sure I understand the current state of affairs.

The Privacy Commissioner has done a bit of a survey with respect to information sharing or SCISA. He has a report before Parliament. Five institutions have either collected or disclosed information, four institutions have received information on 52 occasions, and three institutions have disclosed information on 58 occasions. CSIS is one of the four bodies that has received information; I don't know how many times. To date that information sharing has not been reviewed, but SIRC plans to review it.

Is that correct?

See context to find out what was said next.
