Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
As you know, section 84 of the CCRA requires CSC to involve communities in the planning for the release of indigenous inmates to the community. If an inmate expresses an interest in being released into an aboriginal community, CSC is required to provide the community with an opportunity to propose a plan for the inmate's release and integration. Section 84 therefore encourages the participation of indigenous communities by requiring CSC to seek their input as part of the process.
How often do aboriginal communities take part in the planning for the release of the indigenous inmates to the community?
