Yes, absolutely. In the case of the rumour, I conveyed it to the senior officials in the Privy Council and asked that it be investigated. In the case of the email that was received by someone at the department, it was our senior officials in the Privy Council who briefed us on it who indicated to us that the receipt of the email had triggered the national investigation service to again review the matter. Then ultimately, they reported back that the review was closed and no further information was found.
