Thank you very much.
Gentlemen, thank you so much for being here. Your testimony has been extremely helpful and in some cases instructive.
I would also ask you, if you have any additional information to share with the committee that you think might help us in our deliberations, to please do so. You can contact our clerk.
Mr. Chamberlain, particularly I want to thank you for your recommendations. I should let you know, sir, that the one example and some other examples that you have given the committee concern me greatly, because the chair has received many responses from people we've attempted to get here as witnesses who have refused because they still feel that they would be subject to reprisal. It seems that the act designed to ostensibly protect whistle-blowers many times has the opposite effect: it punishes them.
That is of great concern to me. I would certainly appreciate any suggestions you have that can assist us when we're doing a thorough review of this act.
Thank you once again, all of you.
We will suspend for just a couple of minutes while we wait for our next panellists to approach the table.
