Mr. Ian Drennan:

I have to say by way of preliminary comment, certainly to those members who were on the predecessor committee, that there has been inordinate correspondence between the committee and the ODCE over the last couple of years in which I have set out that I would do everything possible to assist the committee in understanding those matters. I am quite happy to do so in due course if the committee really wants to do that.

From our perspective, I have no desire to re-litigate these issues. They occurred approximately 11 or 12 years ago or thereabouts. In short, I could not possibly answer that question in the time allotted here. That is something that would require going back to where we started by making a submission to the committee so that we could fully understand it. I do not know whether anyone has the appetite to do that. For what it is worth, I would seriously question the value of doing that. If that is where the committee wants to go, then so be it but it is not something I can address today because of the complexity of the issue.
