We're not currently seeking one for this part, since it refers to three individuals or more involved in criminal activities.
The second part is the one on mandate, which doesn't seem to be consistent. He also mentioned legislative amendments that might be required in that regard. I understand you. Subsection 185(1) of the Criminal Code makes a one-year authorization possible, but other investigation techniques apply. For example, there are what are called tracking warrants, warrants for number recorder and general warrants, and these warrants are only issued for a period of 60 days. So there's a lack of coherence between the one-year term of some of the tools that we use — in relation to developments on the case — and others whose term is limited to 60 days. It would also be important for us to be able to use these tools over a one-year period rather than be limited to 60 days.
The other important question is the notice of interception. The Criminal Code requires police officers to notify an individual who has been subject to an interception, after a period of three years, that he has indeed been the subject of an interception. We're asking that this period be extended from three to five years because some of our investigations take longer than three years.
Let's take the example of Operation Colisée. The investigation was spread over a period of four years. You'll understand that, if an individual is the subject of an investigation and we inform him of that after three years, while the investigation is still underway, that can cause certain problems.
Lastly, I'd like to mention an interesting event that occurred in Quebec. A judge set restrictions on access to a firearm in accordance with section 109 of the Criminal Code for individuals who had been convicted of drug trafficking. However, the judge stated that sections 109 and 467.1 of the Criminal Code contained no provisions enabling a judge to suspend access to a firearm for Criminal Code offences. Consequently, section 467.1 is not included in subsection 109(1) of the Criminal Code, and vice versa. In other words, there's a legislative gap.
Lastly, I believe I answered your last question on amendments in my comments.
