Thank you, Madam Chair.
I would tend to agree with Mr. Maloney. I think that this is really putting the prosecutor in a very sensitive position of going beyond providing information and essentially providing legal advice.
I would see a real issue if there were a breach of the protective order and the same prosecutor who had given advice was then supposed to prosecute the person to whom they'd given advice, and the person would argue that the prosecutor had told them certain things and they were relying on what the prosecutor told them, creating a real conflict of interest situation.
I would tend to lean toward supporting this government amendment, because I think otherwise it really creates an issue of confusion and potential conflict of interest.
Thank you, Madam Chair.
