Well, to be frank, as I said in December, when a case is really in the public domain, I have no problem stating that I am in the process of looking into the situation.
In some other cases, there is a risk that this will harm the investigation that is under way. As I said in my five-year review of the act, it is important that I continue to conduct my investigations in private to ensure the integrity of those investigations. This protects the capacity to obtain testimonies and documentation. It also allows me to make a fair and unbiased decision.
The difference for me is that it allows me to study the situation. If I disclosed to the public that I was conducting an investigation, there would be a risk that it would end up in the media, which may harm the integrity of my investigation, which I want to protect.
So I fully agree with talking about cases to the public and saying that I am indeed reviewing these cases, but I can't discuss the details of them.
