In fact, it did raise a red flag, which was why I instructed my chief of staff to go directly to the commissioner and determine what steps were being taken. Because I already knew, based on briefings I had received, that there had been an issue around irregularities regarding the pension plan, that there had been an internal audit, that there had been a management plan put in place, and that the management plan was being implemented within the RCMP to deal with the problems--the problems that had taken place some time long before I became minister. I don't know what actually the exact date was, but it's here in your materials. But the management plan was in place. It was being implemented.
So--I think it was on February 19--Mr. Lewis sent materials to the then President of the Treasury Board. Mr. Alcock was here. He told you what he did. He acted appropriately.
I keep coming back to the fact, ladies and gentlemen, that there are processes. And you follow the processes to protect both individuals and institutions and to hopefully avoid allegations of wrongdoing where there may not be any, when the processes are finally appropriately followed.
