Submissions were called for, and a total of 38 submissions were received from a mixture of individuals and organisations, many of them NGOs, and the committee heard from 26 of these submitters. The committee submitted its final report to the then Minister of Foreign Affairs in August of last year. I would like, at this time, to thank the previous members of this committee from the 52nd Parliament, as well as the clerks and the officers that helped us with this inquiry.
