Ms. Adam, I would like to wish you, and those who have accompanied you here today, a warm welcome. I would like to congratulate you on your latest report, as well as on all of the work which you have done throughout your mandate, which has been thoroughly exemplary. I am sure that I am speaking on behalf of all parliamentarians in saying so. You deserve our most heartfelt congratulations.
I appreciate the fact that you have proposed some amendments in your brief. I would like to provide you with a concrete example relating to the Privacy Act, which is discussed on page 4 of your brief.
Let us take the example of the citizen or member of Parliament who tables a complaint about a department. Were the complaint to be deemed admissible, and were you to provide a report on it, you would inform the complainant that, given that his complaint was related to part V of the Official Languages Act, he would be entitled to seek redress before the Federal Court of Canada. This is just an example. In this case, in the interest of impartiality, the documents that you would use to prepare your report would remain confidential until the case had been heard by the Federal Court.
Am I correct in my understanding of the process?
