Thank you, Madam Chair.
I want to return to something I mentioned earlier. One of our witnesses from a previous session reported to me that disadvantageous action was threatened against them as a result of their appearing before the committee. This witness does not wish to be identified publicly at this point. My office is working with them.
If this threat continues, I will bring the appropriate motion regarding contempt of Parliament before this committee. The testimony of witnesses is protected, and they must not suffer adverse consequences from an appearance here.
I would just like the committee to know that this has happened. I also don't wish to put that witness at further risk, if we can solve this problem before it goes any further. I just want the committee to be aware that this has happened. If it does not cease—the people who know about this can hear me—I will bring in a motion to committee regarding contempt of Parliament.
