There is no question that reviewing or modernizing the act would help with our situation in terms of the act being more precise and what the legislator wants in terms of time extensions and performance by departments.
Right now, after they've responded to a requester in the first 30 days, basically they can claim all the time that they feel they require, unless it becomes unreasonable, and then I investigate.
What's reasonable in law—I'm not a lawyer, but I've been told this before by lawyers—is reasonable in the mind of a reasonable judge on a reasonable day. So it becomes quite a debate.
I know the committee has committed to reviewing or at least beginning a review of the Privacy Act. We'll be following that with interest. We may even want to provide you some of our views, because many of the principles in that statute are the same principles we will operate under. So I think there's kind of a window for us to get a feel about these issues, and what might be modernization of the Privacy Act in principle could also be modernization of the Access to Information Act in principle.
