I'll just follow up briefly to say, as the committee has been discussing with previous witnesses and with the minister, that the question is finding the right balance between the judicial independence principle and the encouragement that the government is trying to ensure through the legislation it's bringing forward.
The first important change is the difference between applying the legislation to sitting judges, as it would have originally, as opposed to candidates for judicial appointments. Again, that's clearly designed to recognize the judicial control over judicial education for sitting judges, moving it to an undertaking as opposed to.... That change that was moved in the Senate, the government is now supporting as reflecting a better balance.
Likewise, on the reporting requirement in terms of the level of detail, originally in Bill C-337 there was discussion of the number of sexual assault cases in particular that had been heard by judges who hadn't undergone the training and so on. There was a sense in the evidence from witnesses that this could be perceived as targeting members of the judiciary, so it's moving to a softer reporting requirement in the sense of not being seen to potentially single out particular courts or particular judges. Reporting on quantum numbers was a more appropriate approach for striking an appropriate balance.
