註釋This report identified inefficiencies in police interactions with the criminal justice system by conducting interviews with police officers, civilian police officials, Crown, and senior justice officials. Several major inefficiencies in police interactions with the justice system were identified, including: disclosure; the use of technology; the challenges faced in northern and remote areas; a lack of standardized practice; and the absence of collaborative information sharing between police and Crown. A number of sources for these inefficiencies were identified, including: internal/external policies and procedures; legislation; inadequate training and supervision; case law; and the Charter. There was a general consensus that there were numerous challenges in successfully addressing the inefficiencies in their jurisdictions, including a lack of political will, inadequate funding, the absence of collaborative relationships among key stakeholders (particularly between police and Crown), the lack of standardized practice, and the uneven use of technology. There were also concerns about the reluctance of various parties to reform traditional practices and the paucity of research that could inform policy and practice. The unique challenges surrounding the delivery of policing services in northern and remote communities were also identified as requiring attention. The findings from this study suggest that the greatest challenge lies not in identifying the inefficiencies that exist in the justice system and in policing but rather acting to address them. To date, there have been few initiatives to develop standardized practices in an attempt to address inefficiencies.
