Thank you, Mr. Chair.
It is really ironic that we are unable to get a clear answer on the matters before us, in particular on the matter of torture.
A little earlier, Mr. Watkin said that we had to base ourselves on facts. It seems to me, since you are the man on the spot, that you ought to be giving us facts. So, what did you do when you were told that Colonel Saddiqui, who is charge of human rights, not only confirmed the use of torture on a prisoner of war, but justified it?
If at least we could get something along those lines, that as Minister of Defence, you did something concrete in admitting that torture takes place, and if you told us what steps you took, we might perhaps get somewhere.
