Plain-language summary · AI-assisted

The National Security and Intelligence Review Agency Act has been updated to bring the Foreign Influence Transparency Commissioner within the scope of the Review Agency's oversight. As a result, the Foreign Influence Transparency Commissioner is now treated as a 'department' for review purposes, and the Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness is designated as the appropriate Minister in relation to that Commissioner. Previously, these amendments were listed as 'not yet in force'; they have now been incorporated into the consolidated text. Organizations and individuals subject to oversight by the Foreign Influence Transparency Commissioner should be aware that the Review Agency can now review activities connected to that office.
