I recently made a statement concerning Gordon Wilson, the former Advocate for the LNG Buy

BC Program, that, "We were unable to locate any written reports by him setting out what he had
done to earn that money." As I have stated publicly previously, that statement was inaccurate,
and based on incorrect information provided to me. In fact, Mr. Wilson did provide reports
setting out what he had done to earn the money that he was paid. I regret making the
statement, I retract that statement in its entirety, and apologize to Mr. Wilson for my error in
making that inaccurate statement.
