What I can say with respect to ministerial engagement is particularly around Global Affairs Canada's minister's engagement. I have to say that I and Mr. Thoppil, Ms. Sunday, as well as other Government of Canada officials, briefed the minister at the time, Minister Garneau, on a daily basis. We had a four corners meeting with the Privy Council Office and other departments on a daily basis. There was intensive coordination between departments, and engaging ministers and the centre, throughout that period.
