I had referenced that under subsection 44(3) of the Conflict of Interest Act, the commissioner is required to examine the matter raised by a request from a parliamentarian who has reasonable grounds to believe the public office holder or former public office holder had contravened the act.
I referenced the letter exchange that happened between our friend here from the Conservatives and the commissioner. I put to him, based on the act, that they must do this unless “the Commissioner determines that the request is frivolous or vexatious or made in bad faith”.
My question is, which one did he pick?
