Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I move that clause 65 of Bill 4 be amended by adding the following after subclause 3.
(3.1) subsection 3 does not apply in respect of
(a) personal correspondence between the proposed respondent and a parent, child, spouse, brother or sister of that person or
(b) information that is subject to solicitor/client privilege.
(3.2) Where a court makes an order under subsection 3, it may make any order with respect to the confidentiality to be maintained in connection with the information provided pursuant to that order that it considers appropriate.
Thank you

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I wonder if the mover of the motion could explain to me why it would not apply to personal correspondence if personal correspondence has indicated that there was abuse or something happening I would expect that could be used. I wonder at the reason behind this motion.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. My understanding is that this was the recommendation from the privacy commissioner who felt that the present provisions were possible undue invasion of privacy. As a result, this motion attempts to strike a balance between personal rights of privacy and the need to enforce court orders. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
