You raise, I think, an important point from our perspective. This is not related to the committee specifically. Within the Department of Justice itself, it does not appear that these considerations get attention when these bills are drafted, and that is a concern. While the Department of Justice has an aboriginal justice directorate and an aboriginal justice strategy, those individuals do not appear to be involved—in fact, I know they're not involved—in these sorts of discussions, and I think that's unfortunate. It's more than unfortunate; it's tragic.
What happens is that these sorts of issues can then only be raised, if they're raised at all, at much later stages. It would be so much better if some of those considerations arose right at the beginning, when people started to think about what a bill is actually going to do. It would be good if the department internally looked at the questions in that way as well.
