As you know, proposed section 20 deals with the act not being construed to create unreasonable delay to interfere with proper administration of justice, to interfere with prosecutorial discretion, or to interfere with the investigative authorities or the authority of the minister, of course. There is always discretion, as Madame Gaudreault has pointed out.
One of the previous witnesses on another panel suggested that this proposed section 20 should be completely struck out. He felt that somehow it was giving an immunity to the police and the crown against possible civil lawsuits against them. He thought that this would open the door for the police or the crown to engage in criminal lawsuits against victims following their negative comments in the media. Do you have any reaction to that? I don't think that's clearly what the section is intended to do, but I'm wondering about your perspective.
