Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Ms. Ouimet, could you give us an explanation? When the security incidents occurred at your office, you contacted, if I am not mistaken, the RCMP deputy commissioner of operations, Mr. Tim Killam. The services of a risk assessment specialist were retained. They had been recommended by the Prime Minister's Office.
There is talk of independence. However, I wonder why the RCMP was involved in this matter, and why, at the same time, the Prime Minister's Office provided the name of a person to solve this problem.
