I hope the further legislation will have improvements in accountability and oversight because that's part of the effectiveness, as I said before.
Another point that I am concerned about here, and that's why I think we need more time to discuss this, is that there's no point in passing laws that won't withstand scrutiny in the court. So I have a question for the minister about what advice he has received from the Department of Justice on the constitutionality of the measures proposed here, particularly those that deal with authorizing courts to grant warrants without respect to international law, also with respect to the protection of the identity of human sources.
If these laws aren't going to stand up when they get to court then we're wasting time here when we could do something more effective. Has he had that advice? Will he table that advice with this committee?
