The Standing Committee on
Public Safety and National Security

has the honour to present its

Third Report

On May 29, 2006, in accordance with its mandate under Standing Order 108(1), your committee established a subcommittee with the mandate, pursuant to the Order of Reference made by the House of Commons on Friday May 19, 2006, to review the Anti-terrorism Act and, as part of that review, to also undertake a review of Section 4 of the Security of Information Act and the use of security certificates, and prepare a report on these matters.

On August 1, 2006, the Subcommittee agreed to first review the sections concerning investigative hearings and recognizance with conditions, which are the two sections subject to sunset clauses; and report its findings on these two issues to the Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security in the form of an interim report.

The Subcommittee on the Review of the Anti-terrorism Act submitted its first report to the Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security, which adopted the interim report.
