We are an administrative investigation body. We do not use a criminal law standard.
The purpose of an investigation under our legislation is to report on founded cases of wrongdoing and make recommendations for corrective action.
In cases of reprisal, we do not have the power to even make a finding of reprisal. We have the authority to make an application to a tribunal that is composed of Federal Court judges who have adjudicative power and can make remedial and disciplinary orders.
The standard at that level would be different from the standard in an administrative investigation, I would suppose.
