Yes, I can. I'll clarify that.
I want to go back to a bit of history and to the MacGuigan report. Back in the day, in the 1970s, we were the National Parole Service and all parole officers in the community did report to the parole board. The MacGuigan report said that really didn't look too great and we should change that, so in 1979 the Penitentiary Service became Correctional Service of Canada and took over all responsibility for the parole officers.
The Parole Board of Canada, as it became known at that time, became a decision-making body only, to stop what could be seen as a conflict of interest. Parole Board members are GIC appointments, every single one of them. They have terms of three to five years. Parole officers report through the Correctional Service of Canada and are responsible for the day-to-day supervision of parolees in the community.
