Résumé
The Ministry of the Attorney General for Ontario was granted standing for the purpose of both Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the Inquiry, because the Attorney General is responsible for superintending all matters connected to the administration of justice in Ontario, and in particular because Crown Attorneys are agents of the Attorney General for the purpose of criminal prosecutions. The Phase 1 submissions are divided into seven main sections: Fundamental Principles, Pre-Project Truth Investigations and Prosecutions, Project Truth, Non- Project Truth Investigations and Prosecutions, Response to Institutional Issues, Phase1 Policy Submissions, and Phase 1 Recommendations.
