Thank you.
The proposed amendment clarifies the ministers' disclosure requirements regarding security certificates. I would like to draw your attention to the Supreme Court of Canada decision in the Harkat case. It identified what it means to be sufficiently informed of the ministers' argument.
In that decision, the Supreme Court required that the information be disclosed if it would enable the individual targeted by the measure or someone who is not a Canadian citizen to be sufficiently informed in order to give meaningful instructions to his or her legal counsel and to give meaningful instructions to the special advocate.
Of course, that information will always be disclosed to the individual as long as that disclosure is not injurious to national security. If such a disclosure could be injurious to national security or the security of another party, it would be disclosed to the special advocates.
