I am willing to do that. I am giving you a bit of the background behind my motion.
On Friday, when I tried to obtain the information, I had already been looking for the report since the spring. And the department had had it for a week and a half. The library, which had asked for the document originally, received a response that I find disturbing and problematic. And that is why I set the two-day deadline. But I do agree with you. We could get the report when we get back from Christmas break. I have no problem with that.
I quite like Mr. Szabo, but I do not want to get into a debate on the delay and the circumstances surrounding the issue right now. This may have just been an exception. I am waiting for the department to provide a more detailed explanation on what really happened with this request. It could very well be due to the fact that the document was subject to an audit. So I can appreciate that they were concerned.
I am telling the committee members about this because, on Friday, when all of this happened, I did not have very much time to respond. I think the committee members know what I am talking about here. We do not always have much time to deal with issues that involve the Auditor General's reports, and we often do not receive responses to our access to information requests or information in a timely enough manner to make informed decisions. In this case, you have the Genest report and the Auditor General's report. But, for some reason or another, we never got that one.
