When we started to look at it, we realized that these were complaints of reprisals by PSIC employees against the PSIC organization itself, and we didn't have the jurisdiction to investigate those. Similarly, it was going to require us to get information from outside the public service, and the act didn't give us the ability to do that either.
We had to stop the investigation under the PSIC legislation, and we had to conduct a performance audit under our own legislation. That wouldn't work in all cases, but in this case it did work. However, it also meant that the people who brought the complaints forward didn't have the same protection that the act would have provided them had we done an investigation under the act.
