We are examining the court challenges program with a view to completely restoring it. It included a language rights component, and so the idea is to restore it to something closer to its original mandate.
Work is progressing on this issue. Announcements will be made by the Minister of Justice and the Minister of Canadian Heritage at the appropriate time. That will definitely facilitate the development of case law, which is the aim of the program. With its funding, the program also facilitates a form of access by addressing the costs of litigation. It now remains to be seen whether the program's objective is to facilitate access to a large number of people or organizations or to promote the development of case law for test cases that advance the state of the law. This is the kind of thinking that is under way; it is these kinds of ideas that we received when we conducted consultations to prepare opinions and advice on the subject, and it is these kinds of issues that will eventually be considered. An announcement will be made soon.
