Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
I think the process with respect to redactions is well known. The government of the day took decisions. The decisions were subsequently challenged before the Federal Court. The Department of Justice, on behalf of the government, explained to the court why the government took the view they did.
The government's view was that portions of the report should not be made public for reasons of national security. The court upheld the government's position with respect to many of the things that the government redacted, and the court disagreed with the government's position with respect to other things that have now been made public.
