Our mandate really is to look at how the federal public service takes action once a decision has been made by a government—in this case, the decision to enact certain border measures—and then how that was operationalized. In the course of doing an audit like that, we might often see briefing material or so on.
In this case, because there was such thin documentation, I would tell you that we saw some emails where the deputy minister was being made aware of things at the Canada Border Services Agency, but we saw no formal approval from the deputy there, or no formal briefing to ministers. I can't really speak on what happened between the deputy minister and a minister throughout this.
