I have a number of conversations with ministers on specific issues, but the Court Challenges Program includes complaint mechanisms and processes dealing with inquiries and preliminary reports, whereby departments respond, publish reports or other such things. In a process as formal as that, I do not expect to receive phone calls with proposals for this and that. I do not think that would be appropriate.
However, I am often asked to come and speak about programs before departmental management committees. We work with institutions. In my presentation, I spoke about wanting to develop other kinds of intervention mechanisms. Among other things, we have to establish new relationships with institutions in order to make further progress. It is not enough to make reports that address complaints. We cannot simply establish a formal process of complaint-inquiry-report without ever getting to the bottom of things. We cooperate with institutions and are initiating a dialogue with them. We realize there is a systemic problem and we want an in-depth discussion to see how we can address those fundamental problems.
