Well, Mr. Speaker, as I said, Mr. Bailey, in accordance with the contracting rules and regulations, did meet the criteria set before us. It means that they can take work as long as the work they are taking does not give them the opportunity to unduly exploit confidential information. Perhaps that is the area where it is in dispute right now and that is the unduly exploit confidential information. Maybe that is what we need to define at some point.
It is my understanding that the contracting agency awarded the contract to Mr. Bailey, which went to RFP I believe, request for proposals, and they must have taken into consideration the guidelines and the regulations that are laid out in this policy. I am not trying to foist stuff onto anybody else, I mean my honourable colleague is correct, I am ultimately responsible, but I have had no waiver come across my desk in relationship to any employee. None. I am saying that perhaps what needs to be clarified is, unduly exploit confidential information. That is the only way I can answer that question. Thank you.
