Thank you, Mr. Shugart, for being here today. What you're indicating to us, though, is disturbing: that the executive branch basically can turn its back on very clear committee direction.
I have three questions coming out of that. First, can you provide us with detailed information about the classification for each of the redactions that were done in the month of August, including information on the issue of documents that, according to some people's criteria, were not relevant? If you could provide us with that information, I think it would be very helpful.
Secondly, are you not saying, then—I don't want to put words in your mouth—that the executive has the right to do the same redaction for documents that go to the law clerk this time around? If the executive can expand its exclusion far beyond the committee's mandate, is that not a concern?
Thirdly, could you explain the uneven distribution of redaction or cabinet confidences by the fact that different public servants may have applied differing criteria when they were excluding some of the documents on the basis of cabinet confidence?
