Mr. Tim Drea:

I represent the investigations division in the Department. We have a lot of engagement with the IHRB, particularly on procedures and practices and working out ways of working together. My division is subject to the same kind of requirement to justify and to explain what we do without putting information out in the public domain that makes it too clear what we can and cannot do and makes it easier for people to circumvent some of our enforcement actions. We are both obliged to comply with the law and then whatever kinds of codes of practice or procedures we operate internally. I am not very familiar with IHRB's, but in the Department there are complaints procedures that allow people to express concerns about anything we might do.
