Public Safety committee  I will answer the three parts of your question, I hope, but before that I would reiterate what Mr. Bradley said, and I would add to it that I know the wheels sometimes turn slowly, but the more quickly the bill can be passed the better, because we will be able to then share infor

Public Safety committee  Yes.

Public Safety committee  It's not an area of my expertise; I'm sorry.

Public Safety committee  I will. From my standpoint, I can tell you we have worked very cooperatively with policing agencies, fire departments, and other emergency agencies in relation to security drills, for example. The drills are very important to find out what might go wrong during an emergency. We h

Public Safety committee  My comment was that we're being advised that there's no direct threat at this time. We always have to be vigilant in relation to security matters, not only in critical infrastructure but during our daily lives. When we travel, we should be paying attention to what's going on arou

Public Safety committee  The answer to that is a definite yes, but not just for Ontario Power Generation. I'm sure Chris Price would concur with that, and Jean-Guy. As a matter of fact, at our CEA meetings with security personnel from across the country, that is a usual event across the country, not just

Public Safety committee  First of all, I'd like to be very clear that the plant in the Kincardine area is not an OPG facility, so I can't comment to that particular incident--not that I would anyway.

Public Safety committee  We have security personnel in various locations across the province. And I also mentioned operational staff. For our operational staff, we have a security awareness program in our company, as well as a very strong safety program in our company. So we have tried to make our staff

Public Safety committee  The emergency plan for our company is an integrated plan. It's integrated in the locations where those plans are rolled out, so it is the local policing agencies, the emergency preparedness people in our company, and the province. There is a network involved--but again, emergency

Public Safety committee  We in fact do have security measures in place at our nuclear facilities, as I am sure the committee is aware. It is public knowledge that we do actually have a policing agency on site. Certainly from an emergency preparedness standpoint we are well prepared for emergencies, and

Public Safety committee  This is a regulatory area. It is regulated by the CNSC. It is not an area that I could discuss from my perspective, so I would have to defer that question, unfortunately. I am prepared to speak on the access to information piece of this bill, which our company wholeheartedly end

Public Safety committee  I would like to respond to that. In fact, we do work very closely with municipalities. This bill will go a long way in allowing us to work even closer with everybody across the country. We have an excellent working relationship currently with intelligence and policing agencies r

Public Safety committee  I think cooperation with all players is important. Unfortunately, I would have to leave the answer to that question to people senior to me. My position is specifically around the security area, and I really don't want to comment in areas outside of my expertise.
