Matters are complicated by a long-standing requirement that the archives consult the Canadian Security Intelligence Service before disclosing these records, adding significant delays to the processing of requests. Library and Archives holds more than 7,000 containers of CSIS records, most of which were created by the spy agency s predecessor, the RCMP security service.
