Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I would like to welcome the witnesses who are here to help us with our work.
My first question is for you, Mr. Burt.
You said in your remarks that one of the main contributions of the SCISA is to allow a department to exchange information with another department, even if the recipient's use of the information will be different, provided it concerns Canada's security.
There are 17 institutions. Do you think there are too many? Not all of these institutions are mandated to consider Canada's security. Should there be some mechanism to ensure that these new information exchanges are appropriate?
