Thank you, Chair.
I'm wondering if you can help me understand. There have been many discussions so far in this meeting about Paul Bernardo having been in maximum security for 30 years. You discussed the factors that are considered in that transfer from maximum to medium, including institutional adjustment, the risk that he could escape and the risk to the public if he did escape.
The rationale I've heard so far is around the fact that he has apparently shown some signs of institutional adjustment. Is it not a combination of factors that is looked at? Why would one factor supersede the remainder, including the known risks if he were to escape or the risk to others in medium security alongside him?
It seems like maybe attention was being paid to one factor over the others. Can you speak to that?
