I'll try.
I asked whether the department has any statistics with respect to limiting preliminary inquiries and reducing backlog. The answer, Ms. Corriveau, was that there were no statistics. Perhaps you could provide an estimate. Is there some analysis that has been done with respect to the anticipated amount of time that this would save, or is there really nothing in the way of evidence in that regard?
There is another area I want to ask a question on that's totally separate. It's with respect to how judicial referral hearings would work. Would they occur only when the prosecutor asks for one? Could you perhaps explain how that might arise? As I understand it, judicial referral hearings are aimed at reducing the number of administration of justice offences. Do you have any numbers or statistics in terms of the amount of court time that is taken to deal with administration of justice offences?
