I'll be very brief. There's a long analysis, but I'll just go with the short one. The amendment would create an inconsistency between what is filed with the federal court and what is provided to special advocates under paragraph 85.4(1)(a). It would widen the scope of the information that is provided to the special advocates from what is relevant to the case to what relates to the person, which would include irrelevant information.
The bill specifically insures that special advocates not only receive the information that is filed wit the federal court, but also receive any information in the minister's possession that is relevant to the case even if it is not relied on by the minister. The information may be included as evidence by the special advocates if desired.
