Thank you to the witnesses for being here and for your service, of course.
Mr. Richards raised a number of points related to SNC-Lavalin and offered a rationale for doing so. If I accused him of playing political games, I think he would respond by saying that he was exercising his parliamentary duty. I've had very good interactions with Mr. Richards over the past three years, so I might take him at his word on that.
Unfortunately, he left a few points out. If we consult the website of the Office of the Commissioner of Lobbying of Canada, from 2011 to 2015, under the previous government, there were no less than 25 meetings that took place between SNC-Lavalin and the Department of Finance at that time.
I wonder, Mr. McGowan or Ms. Smith, if you would know the contents of the meetings that took place, again during the previous government? There were 25 meetings in all. Would you be able to point to anything of relevance there?
