May I have another moment, Mr. Chair?
I recognize that you've just taken up your post in the last couple of weeks--although I understand you've been studying and preparing for quite some time, since you were first asked to take on the job--but is there anything in the mandate, either as the mandate was publicly declared when you took office or in the background to the mandate, that you could share with us as a cause for concern?
You suggest here that the inability of the ombudsman to intercede in case reviews and appeals is a good thing. I would agree with you, certainly, on that point, although I would be hopeful that you could, for example, look at the appeals and review process, writ large, and as ombudsman comment on the process, if not on individual cases. Are there any limitations that you foresee in your mandate now, or is it too soon to say? Also, are you allowed to comment on the appeals and review process, writ large?
