Okay. I will get through these very quickly.
One, we think interdiction should be part of a broader strategy for dealing with drugs and alcohol in the prisons.
Two, the prevalence and policies associated with false positives in current interdiction techniques should be assessed.
Three, the impact of drug interdiction efforts on family visits should be recognized, and consultations with inmates and families could perhaps be held to see if there is some way to address the drug policy objectives without jeopardizing the family visits.
Four, treatment should be available for those under the care of CSC.
Five, the renewal of the national anti-drug strategy should include resources to test addiction treatment for offenders as part of the continuum of care that bridges the transition back into the community.
Six, harm reduction should be available.
Seven, an assessment should be done to determine if the spread of alcohol and drug-related disease is more prevalent in prison, and, if so, steps should be taken to address that.
Eight, given the increased density of the prison population, the Canadian public health authorities should be invited to comment on minimum space requirements and other health issues.
And nine, finally, in light of the recent Supreme Court of Canada decision, a review of the use of the discretion, by the minister and officials, that limits access of offenders suffering from the illness of addiction to treatment and harm reduction should be undertaken to ensure charter compliance.
Thank you very much.
