There's a combination of things that go into that.
I'm not even sure what's meant by “reporting on the process”. Because it's a public process, it's reported on, in the sense that it's in the courts. When an extradition case goes forward, it's public and takes place in a courthouse. All the materials are open to the public. That makes it public.
We have statistics, some of which are placed on our website. There is no issue with that. We put forward statistics. We're asked by the media, on a regular basis, for statistics, which we provide. Statistics aren't really an issue.
Again, I'm not sure what you mean by “reporting”, but when it comes to whether we have an actual reason for reporting.... We get requests for extradition. At that point, they're confidential unless we move forward with them. We receive quite a few requests for extradition that never see the light of day, because we don't authorize them.
The problem with necessarily disclosing all of that is that we're identifying a case that is at an investigative stage, potentially, in the sense that it's still ongoing in the foreign state. If we say we received a request and refused it, we identify that for a person who's potentially still subject to a prosecution at some point in the future. There's a process, even in Canada, whereby you don't identify, for example, that you're investigating someone before you proceed to trial. However, once a person is charged, it becomes public knowledge.
