Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, witnesses, for being here.

I want to pursue Mr. Lee's questions about that case in Toronto.

You have, both in the main estimates and the supplementary estimates, figures for “Contributions in support of Federal Court-ordered Counsel--Unique Legal Aid Cases”. Could you tell me what that is for? And as a supplementary point, why is there such a substantial increase in the supplementary over what was in the main estimates back in the spring?

See context to find out what was said next.
