<div class="yiv6354842362MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;">Thank you for your recent inquiry, in which you raise concerns about Activa Holdings and the OMB. The Policy and Adjudicative Tribunals Division has been given a copy
of your email, and been asked to respond on behalf of the Honourable John Gerretsen, Attorney General, and this Ministry.

of government. To maintain this independence, neither the Attorney General nor Ministry officials can review or comment in the OMB’s processes or decisions.
