What it does

The review program ensures that Committee members receive timely access to relevant, classified information, and expert advice in the conduct of reviews, and the development of reports. At the Chair’s direction, the Secretariat arranges Committee meetings, drafts, proposed reviews and Terms of Reference for Committee approval, conducts research and analysis to develop reviews for Committee consideration and approval, and is responsible for all administrative support for the Committee and for the finalization of Committee reports to the Prime Minister.

The overall benefits of the Committee, which the Secretariat’s activities support, are to contribute to strengthened accountability and transparency of Canada’s security and intelligence community, improved performance of these organizations, and a more informed citizenry on issues of profound importance to Canadians: security, rights and freedoms.
