Thank you, Madam Chair.
I just want to get a verification through the department. You mentioned that it was published later by the University of Ottawa. When I go on there, cases that happened in February may not be reported until late in the year, November or December. Is there a guideline for when a case does go through and ends, one way or another? Is there a dead stop date? I went on the website and saw stuff where we had a conflict in January or February with one case and it was not being reported until maybe November, if at all.
I think that's what Ms. Thomas was saying. When you go on the website, it's very slow. It's not very transparent. That was my issue with accountability on money. The court challenges program right now has a cumulative surplus of over $3.5 million. According to the recent main estimates, the CCP's annual funding is going to double, as they said, to over $10 million. That's the transparency, I think, at least on this side, that we're having really difficult times with. When a challenge has been accepted and has gone through the proper negotiations, we're not seeing it up on the website.
Is there a protocol in place with the university to get to this? As I said, I've seen some that maybe are February and that all of a sudden pop up in November, which is like seven or eight months later. That seems a little long to me. Is there a process in place to get these verdicts up sooner?
