Bob Bratina at the Access to Information, Privacy and Ethics Committee

Thank you.

Monsieur Therrien, in recommendation 11 you recommend amending section 64 to allow the commissioner to report publicly on government privacy issues. We've discussed this in previous testimony.

Are you satisfied with the level of independence in your office with regard to making further reports and also order-making power? Could you give me a sense of how you feel about the independence of the Office of the Privacy Commissioner?
