Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman.
Good afternoon, everybody.
First, I'd like to compliment the commissioner. I think this is the first time that I can recall when before we even have the examination we have two documents from the commissioner of the department under investigation. One is the letter to Mr. Murphy, our chairman, giving a proactive response saying they accepted all the recommendations of the Auditor General, and also the response regarding testimony before the Standing Committee on Justice, Human Rights, Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness.
I appreciate the proactive response, Commissioner. For Canadians, of course, this is a vital part of the crime-solving tool box, and we need to know that it does work well.
The thing that concerned me most of all was the report about the conflicting testimony given to the public accounts committee. Madam Fraser, you mentioned in your report, in section 7.15, and I quote:
...the House of Commons Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights, Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness heard testimony from two former RCMP staff members, casting doubt on statements made earlier by RCMP officials before the Committee.
The two former members particularly disputed a number of things. Who were these two particular members, Madam Fraser?
