Thank you very much for allowing us to appear.
As an administrative tribunal, our legislation very clearly says that our first and foremost consideration is protection of society. In doing that we are making decisions on individual cases, and in that capacity we can already consider information that is coming forward to us. And we do consider information around gangs, whether they are gangs or organized crime, street gangs or institutional gangs. This is a major consideration.
But key to that is reliable and persuasive information. So I'm very pleased to hear...and I can testify that after over 20 years of working in this area, I have seen an improvement across the system for sharing information. But it is always and central to allowing each of us to do our work that we have to share this information in intelligence, and being at the end of the system, for the National Parole Board that is a major consideration because our decisions are only going to be as good as the information we have on which to base those decisions. So I wish you luck.
