That was a question we also probed. As I indicated, we need to remember that our studies and discussions have shown that in a majority of the cases, either the accused or the court or the judge asks for inclusion in the report the mental health status or mental illness-related issues of the person.
Our goal with this bill is not to identify or prescribe how or where the probation officer should go to collect that information. It's based on the job they're already doing and also jurisdiction. The bill is focused on making sure that we codify a practice that is already in place. In those cases where the probation officer may need training or may need to look into it, I am sure that consideration can be made by the provinces or the court system to handling it.
