Up until now, the idea has been that it should remain undisclosed on the grounds of a specific public interest, or because it relates to or would be potentially injurious to international relations, national defence, or national security. I believe the Federal Court has found this approach to be a little too restrictive. The bill amends part of the Canada Evidence Act to institute a presumption of more transparency.
I was wondering if you've looked at those aspects of the bill, because I'm having trouble understanding them. For example, we talk about disclosure risk, that agencies such as yours will now face greater disclosure risk. I was wondering if you could speak to what that really means.
