The issue is that, when I get the file back, I need to decide whether there is a compliance rationale to.... What is there left to investigate? This file has been investigated by me. I've sent it to the RCMP. They've investigated. No charges were laid. It was sent back to me. What am I supposed to do with that? The only thing I could do, possibly, is a report to Parliament to say, “Here's what I did. Here's what the police did.” I don't know what they did, because they don't tell me. They just return the file. The purpose of that.... Then I have procedural fairness. I would have to let the people know that these events that happened four or five years ago...so I just close the file, because there's nothing left to investigate.
