Thank you very much.
And thank you for taking the time to be here today. I think you're sensing a fair amount of frustration, not only on the part of this committee but also on behalf of Canadians, concerning Madame Ouimet, and also on behalf of the 228 people who came forward with information that they thought was important enough to bring forward to her, whistle-blowing on behalf of this government.
I want to make a point of information here. We've been talking about Mr. Keyserlingk. I just want to point out that he was appointed in 2001 as the public service integrity officer. There was a change in 2007, and I want to know, for clarity, that the position now is that of an independent officer of Parliament.
Is that correct, yes or no?
