Public Accounts Committee

2017 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 21 - Prisons

9:00 am

Mr. Michael Flahive:

We have a criminal procedure Bill being drafted in the Office of the Parliamentary Counsel. It will do a number of very valuable things, two in particular. First, it will enhance the basis for video link appearances by prisoners from the prisons where they are held to the courtroom so they do not have to travel physically to the court.
