Thank you for that question, Mr. Brown.
As to the question of the PCO briefing, as I tried to explain...and again, I was not as accurate as I could have been or should have been because that was the best information I had at the time. I stated that we had to prepare the brief within 24 hours. We actually had, I believe, about nine or fourteen days. The 24 hours comes in when I was actually briefed about the fact that my staff was briefing PCO and preparing the timeline. Twenty-four hours before we actually had to produce the timeline to PCO, my deputy advised me we had to give a brief in 24 hours. So I assumed we had 24 hours to prepare it. I was not aware--and I learned later--that we actually had nine or fourteen days during which we had actually started accumulating that information. Even though we had started nine or fourteen days before, we were not able to gather all the information that was actually out there, which we needed to produce.... That is why we provided the information as best we could, but in an incremental way. So when we did provide the first batch of information, we knew and we explained to PCO that it wasn't all that we had to give them, because we had not been able to physically bring out all that information.
So the 24 hours has to do with the fact that I was told there were 24 hours before it was to be delivered; my deputy told me we had 24 hours to deliver it. I thought, well, how could they give us just 24 hours? But actually we had been working on it for, I believe, nine or fourteen days, and there I'm not sure. Even in that period of time, we had not been able to gather it all, and we advised PCO that this would be coming to them incrementally, as best we could....
