I wanted to ask specifically about the third recommendation of the commissioner. She recommended:
...that Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada immediately cease counselling other government institutions to close files when there is the prospect of section 13 or section 15 exemptions, and follow through instead with the mandatory consultation process in a timely manner.
I know the department responded that this would be done immediately. Can you tell me how that was actually implemented? What did that involve, to get the message out that this kind of counselling was to cease immediately?
