Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Mr. Cooper, you talked about the national flagging system in conjunction with information gathering to assist you with presenting evidence in court. Could you elaborate further on the flagging system and talk to us about the instruments available to the various parties in the area of risk assessment.
The clerk will photocopy the document that I requested from you, and that will shed some light on the subject for us. However, I'd like more information about the process used to assess how dangerous a person is, his risk of re-offending and his inability to control his impulses. You seem to have some tools that either the defence or the Crown can use and I'm curious to know more about them.
