Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I had the opportunity earlier in this Parliament to introduce a private member's motion that dealt with Canada Revenue Agency, which is one of the agencies within this. It was not related to national security, but one of the anecdotes that came up during my dealing with that motion was the damage that can be done to someone through the sharing of incorrect information. In that case the CRA had marked somebody as deceased. They then shared that information with other government agencies, and so in the process of bringing this person back to life, so to speak, with all of the various government agencies with which this woman had to interact, her damages and the issues she faced were compounded by the fact that the information had been shared with Service Canada and with other agencies.
I'd like to address my question to Mr. Evans. If the RCMP collects and shares inaccurate information about an individual, what are the procedures to correct that information? When you try to correct information that's incorrectly shared and audit the accuracy, how can you ensure that you don't end up reporting incorrect information back and forth to each other from one agency to another? That is what really happened in this one case I'm aware of with the CRA, and it started this snowball effect of continually trying to mark this person as deceased.
