English term or phrase: The mission was that cec onyl participates in Climo...
Sentence: "The mission was that CEC only participates in Climo"

I wonder about "The mission was that"
Is this a good variant: "La mission était que"

Thank you!

Ambiguity of original


Explanation:
"The mission was that CEC only participates in Climo."

Je suis anglophone et sans plus de contexte, il m'est impossible de savoir avec certitude si CEC est le seul organisme qui va participer à Climo, ou si CEC participera à Climo (et pas ailleurs.)

La position du mot "only" après CEC permet ces deux interprétations.
