Well, if I can continue, during the investigation, Chief Bevan and I spoke about it several times. In October, we did kind of a check to see how was it going. Is there a conflict? Are there issues? He called me back on October 14 and said no, things were running fine, but they would continue to monitor it.
In previous testimony by Assistant Commissioner Gork, Roy, and Chief Bevan, they've all spoken about the total independence of the investigative team.
With respect to the composition of the team, I believe that if there's the appropriate accountability framework and reporting structure in place, then it can function very well. I go back to a file in the Toronto Police Service, where it was headed up by a member of the RCMP, with primarily Toronto Police Service investigators, and my discussions with that individual are that there were no issues.
Now, the perception is there, I agree, and it's something that certainly needs to be addressed. But in this case, it was not brought to my attention, nor was it raised by anyone else that there was an issue around that.
