I just want to take issue with one fact.
Ms. Kane is correct in terms of the information that's given out with regard to the situation in which the prisoner—the convicted murderer—is making the application. But there is no information given out at this point if the person signals to the corrections people that he or she is not going to be applying. That's what Ms. Jennings' amendment is doing.
I wonder if she would entertain an amendment to take the authority away from the chief justice, to remove that part of the section and simply direct that Mr. Head, the Commissioner of Corrections Canada, be mandated to give that reporting. Because they're already doing it if the application is made. If the application is not made, they're not doing it.
Ms. Jennings is signalling that she would agree with that amendment, Mr. Chairman.
