No, there haven't been any from the board. Again, as I mentioned earlier, if the minister or the government asks us for our advice to them on legislation, we'll respond. We don't go to government and say to change the laws for us to do this or that. We basically follow the laws that are in place under the CCRA, the CRA, and the Criminal Code of Canada. That's what's happens there.
We've had third party information come to us. We have a strong working relationship with police agencies across the country as well as the CSC. With any information that comes forward regarding an investigation that may be critical to this offender and/or other individuals who may still be in the community, and/or the victims, a gist is drafted up, which will be very brief and will state that there is an ongoing investigation on this offender by the RCMP.
That's provided to the offender and to us. That's all the information we get. It would have nothing to do with what type of an investigation it is. It wouldn't have anything to do with whether it is a homicide or a sexual assault or whatever it is. It's just a very brief gist saying that he's still being investigated for an additional or a new offence. That has to be provided to the offender. That's sensitive third party information.
As well, that includes other offenders within the institution who may provide information that the offender we are going to be reviewing or assessing risk on is trafficking in drugs within the institution or is an enforcer for a group. Again, that's third party information. In order to protect the offender, who obviously doesn't want his name going before the hearing in regard to saying that this offender told on that offender--again, that's third party protected information--a gist or a brief summary is provided to us through CSC, so that we also have some knowledge that he is part of the drug subculture within the institution.
