Thank you, Madam Chair.
We have reviewed the transcript of the appearance of Mr. Kessel. We have also read the articles from Embassy. The majority of the facts, or the allegations in the articles, and the substance of Mr. Kessel's testimony, pertained to the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade. They're not immediately relevant to CIDA. If you had any specific questions with respect to terminology at CIDA, we could probably address them, but otherwise, the issues raised are not really within our mandate.
