If I could add one point, I think it's also important to clarify that we're talking about time in court here. This bill also talks about the parole board decisions and it talks about—if I may use the word “warden”—the institutional head. I think those have to be in writing, because, first of all, any Canadian can get a copy of the decision registry of the parole board, but the decision registry is not a transcript.
This committee may have heard me speak before about the inability of a victim to get a copy of the audio tape that's done at the time of that. I think it's critical in that case, as well.
When wardens make these decisions, as people are probably well aware, there is no transcript. Victims don't even have the same abilities to attend as they would at a parole board hearing. I just want to make sure I emphasize that in those two cases they should absolutely have that available in writing.
