Summary
"The process of giving notices and hearing representations in response to them has been completed and we are therefore now in a position to deal, in this Third Report, with a number of incidents involving conduct of named members of the R.C.M.P. We shall state whether, in our opinion, the conduct of certain individuals was "not authorized or provided for by law". . . Although this Report is essentially a catalogue of a number of incidents, we have attempted to structure it not only so that conclusions can be reached with respect to each incident but also so that the incidents can be placed within a broader framework."
