Thank you for your offer, Mr. Chair. I would just like to ask one question.
I want to apologize to the witnesses for the fact that we had to discuss committee business earlier. This business could have been discussed at another time.
My question is for Ms. Xavier and it concerns the victims of the APT31 group.
Last week, we were told that that neither CSE, nor CSIS nor the RCMP contacted members of Parliament following the incidents or disclosures made to the media. We were told that only the FBI briefed members of Parliament. Of course, this is quite a statement. When we hear that, we think that something isn't right.
I want to know whether you consider this unusual.
Is this lack of communication with members of Parliament part of your protocols, or does it conflict with them?
I would like you to clarify these two points.
