Thanks very much, Mr. Chair.
Gentlemen, one of the things I hear most often from frontline officers who have to go to bail court is a frustration with the number of times there's a consent release, which I believe is where the Crown essentially agrees to a release plan without being heard before a judge.
Would you consider it to be an issue that there are too many consent releases? If so, yes, I know more resources is one of the remedies, but can you tell me what you think about that and whether that's something we should be looking at?
