Yes, that would be unusual. I'm not saying necessarily that the department is wilfully not sharing information with me. They may be under the impression that there are improvements being made that we have not taken into consideration, while we have indeed taken them into consideration. What would not be unusual is for one of my reports to irritate a government department or a government institution. That has happened before and I suspect it will happen in the future.
We asked the Department of Veterans Affairs for information before preparing the report. We discussed the main thrust of our conclusions, and they had opportunities to correct some of the misunderstandings that could have arisen. We did not hear about that in the course of drafting this report, so I'm a bit surprised to hear, after the report is tabled, that there are things we have not taken into account.
