Thank you very much.
I appreciate all of you coming in today.
I have just a couple of housekeeping points.
First of all, thank you to you, Auditor General, and to your entire team for kicking us off on another round of studies that we're going to take up as a committee.
For committee members, there will be a meeting this afternoon on the subject of “Report 2: Housing in First Nations Communities” at our regular time of 3:30.
For the OAG, there's been a request for several documents today. I believe we will get them as soon as possible. Those documents will be sent through the clerk and then distributed to members.
On the point from Madame Sinclair-Desgagné, I'm going to reaffirm the discussion and my view as chair, which is reinforced by the House administration. It is that, once these documents are sent to the public, they are deemed to be public documents. You can do with them what you like. I'm going to leave that for members to decide.
You can raise them in the House. You can write about them. You can do whatever you want with them. They are considered by the chair and the House administration to be public documents, unless, of course, the auditor comes forward and requests that a document not be made public. That has not happened today. They'll be sent to you.
Finally, just as a point for the auditor, I want to reiterate that I'm perplexed by this, and I'm sure we'll be coming back to it as a committee: In the report on cybercrime, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission has not validated your audit or seems to question the underpinnings.
