I propose to take Questions Nos. 170 and 171 together.

For security, and health and safety reasons , a log of visitors to the Custom House is kept at the main Reception Area where visitors are required to sign in. This log is maintained on a day-to-day basis so that visitors to the building may be safely evacuated in the event of an emergency.

However, my Department's policy is not to retain these records long-term and thus it does not have visitor attendance records from September 2008 on file.
