The test that the PPSC applies when it decides whether or not to go forward with a prosecution has been the same test for quite some time, so in fact it's not new. The test is applied in the majority of provinces, after charges are laid, to ensure that the continuation of a prosecution—because the charge has already been laid—is reasonable both in terms of the evidence and in terms of the public interest. This is not new.
Erin can provide details about the pre-charge provinces, but the officers, should they decide to exercise their discretion in favour of a prosecution, will contact the crown and request authorization to lay a charge. Erin can provide details on that.
