When people will ask the Federal Court to intervene because they will not have been given a right of appeal given their country of origin, the Federal Court might be inclined to conduct more regular checks of how the process is working. In fact, it will not have the impression that due process was followed, and that everyone has the same opportunities and rights.
Furthermore, you spoke about conducting interviews, thus adding another step. That to me appears to be unproductive. When I introduced Bill C-291, I remember your saying that we had to stop adding extra steps. Up until now, people filled out a form, which was dealt with directly during the hearing stage. Now, you want to add an interview stage earlier in the process.
Do you not think that the interviews will further slow down the process rather than expedite matters?
