Mr. Brian J. Saunders at the Justice and Human Rights Committee

Sometimes the request would not come to my office. I have two deputy directors, one of whom has more contact with the Attorney General's office, so I don't know whether she has been contacted or my other deputy director has been contacted either.

I might add, though, when you talk about staff--and I mentioned the section 13 notices--when we meet to discuss issues of prosecution, we do not involve the minister's staff; we meet with the Attorney General.
