I think we've established that the objective of this amendment is to replace a broader definition of “subscriber information” with a narrow list of identifiers.
When I look at the conditions of a production order, my understanding is that not only does an offence have to have been committed or will be committed in the future, but we also need to establish that the subscriber information will assist in the investigation of the offence.
Consequently, am I right to assume that a judge will not authorize the release of that information unless the requesting party can prove it will be useful? That would be my first question.
