I have to admit it is certainly an ongoing issue, largely because of the cases we do move forward with tend to have witnesses that unfortunately drop out because of various forms of intimidation, and of course their precarious status.
We're trying to work that out through two mechanisms. As John mentioned, dealing with the privacy issues, ensuring that perhaps we can protect the privacy of those witnesses who are often complainants. A secondary issue has been addressed by the witness from the TNO, which is perhaps we should look into avenues to protect their status if, for example, their complaints and the evidence they are bringing forward suggests that either the recruiter or the RCIC has provided incorrect advice and exploited them.
Those would be mechanisms that certainly we enforce by this legislation and would be very helpful for ICCRC's disciplinary process, especially as it transitions to the college.
