CSC accepted most of the recommendations put forth by the CHRC, the Human Rights Commission. We report annually to them on the progress we've made with respect to each recommendation. I've met with CHRC twice in about the last six months.
Some recommendations, not very many, are not fully implemented yet. Work is ongoing to address the three areas that remain.
One important recommendation that's not fully implemented came out of that report, and I would comment on it--the development of the initial security classification scale for women. Part of the delay is that a soundly supported research tool requires that certain numbers of cases be considered, and the small number of women offenders we have coming into our institution necessarily means it will take longer to collect the data and test the prototype. So the work is ongoing with respect to that one.
None of the outstanding recommendations are linked to mental health or addictions. However, in response to certain findings, we continue to make efforts to strengthen the use of section 84 agreements for the supervision of aboriginal women offenders within aboriginal communities. Moreover, certain recommendations that have been enacted, such as the Okimaw Ohci Healing Lodge in Maple Creek, Saskatchewan, have had positive impacts on these subgroups. The ten-year status report that I mentioned has a recommendation-by-recommendation breakdown we can provide to you, should you wish to have more detail with respect to each recommendation.
