As my colleague, Mr. Garrison, noted a moment ago, we're still in the general area.
This is, again, in response to the fact that this bill doesn't adequately protect Canadians' privacy, to put it mildly. This amendment of mine would allow a government department to refuse to disclose personal information if that department felt there would be a risk to the individual who's information was being shared. It would allow the Privacy Commissioner to investigate any complaint about the sharing of personal information.
As it stands right now, this bill has no mechanism for investigating such complaints. The second part of my amendment deals with the potential to investigate complaints. The first part would allow a government agency to refuse to disclose information on the test of a reasonable expectation that it could threaten the safety of an individual or if the personal information were subject to solicitor-client privilege.
