Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you to the department for being here today. I appreciated your opening statement that the loss of this information is not acceptable and that your department recognizes that. We totally agree.

One of the issues I have is that you made a decision to inform the RCMP of the loss of this data by the department. Did you consider, after you did the searches, that you had moved from misplaced asset to a missing asset to actually a possible theft of an asset? If so, who made that decision to call on the RCMP?
