There are 17 government agencies that can share information, and then there are three—CSIS, the RCMP, and the CSE—that have independent review bodies. I quote:
“Today nobody has the ability to look at those 17 organizations from a real perspective, that is, across all organizations,” he said. The problem is not just the lack of review bodies, but the inability of these bodies to share information with each other. SIRC cannot cooperate with other bodies to review other agencies despite them sharing intelligence with CSIS. “In my opinion, it's a failing of the system....”
Can you elaborate on that and tell me if there's anything new you would do to change that?
