As you know, and we have stated clearly, the mandate is very clear on our side about protecting parliamentary information, parliamentary devices, and members of Parliament within their legislative function. When it comes to personal devices or personal emails, there are definitely factors that come into play that need to be considered. I think Michel could probably answer some of those questions. However, with regard to privacy, in terms of access, allowing us to monitor these types of devices, the identity, really scales way beyond our capabilities today. Second, our mandate would have to be redefined.
