If you mean how he made the decision on whether to go to the deputy secretary to the cabinet, first of all, Mr. Marques was a very senior staffer and, as he testified, was keeping me updated and apprised of the next steps he was taking. After he informed me about what was going on, he spoke to the clerk, which the clerk has also testified to, and the clerk brought in the deputy secretary to the cabinet to get involved. This all happened within the course of hours, really. This was something we acted on immediately because we were taking it very seriously.
