I can confirm that the agency is very seriously looking at detention and the detention strategy, as well as the proposed options for going forward to ensure that CBSA has the infrastructure and the strategy to ensure much greater consistency in its detention practices. A robust business case is being developed to consider how we can improve the fact that we are limited today because of our infrastructure constraints—that’s something very much at the top of our priority list.
