This annual review is being conducted pursuant to subsection 8(2.2) and paragraph 8(1)(b) of the NSIRA Act. The NSIRA Act grants NSIRA full and timely access to all information held by reviewed departments and agencies, including classified and privileged information, with the exception of Cabinet confidences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The NSIRA review team conducting this review has been identified in the cover email to this letter; they should serve as your officials\u2019 primary point of contact at NSIRA regarding this review.
