Program code

BXS01 (OCSEC)

Core responsibility

Quasi-Judicial Review of Certain Ministerial Conclusions

In Departmental Plans

2020-21 – 2026-27 · New since an earlier plan

What it does

The program supports the IC in reviewing the conclusions on the basis of which certain authorizations are issued or amended, and certain determinations are made and in approving or not the reasonableness of the conclusions and in providing a written decision setting out the reasons for the decision taken.

The program also supports the development of an annual report to Parliament that outlines the activities of the IC in the previous year, including statistics, that the IC considers appropriate, relating to authorizations, amendments and determinations that were approved or not approved.

The Annual Report of the Intelligence Commissioner will provide assurances to Canadians that the Office of the Intelligence Commissioner contributes to the overall accountability of CSE and CSIS and will help to build public trust in the quasi-judicial review program of the Intelligence Commissioner.
