Serious concerns were expressed by Commissioner O'Connor with regard to the sharing of information contained in consular visit reports with others outside of DFAIT. I think you alluded to and answered some of the questions, but specifically, what steps, if any, have you taken to implement this recommendation 18 requiring consular officials to first fully advise those receiving visits that this information will be shared with others?
I ask that question in the particular context surrounding the type of investigative techniques some countries in the world use, other than those accepted in, shall we say, western democracies, and in addition to that, perhaps the kind of rights and privileges that Canadians hold when they are arrested and detained for investigation of certain crimes or suspected crimes.
Perhaps Mr. Desjardins could answer.
