Question:
Mr. Tremblay, a Canadian citizen, is suing the Ministry of World Affairs following his imprisonment for 6 months in Nicaragua. He alleges that the Embassy of Canada to Nicaragua failed to provide him with the necessary consular and legal support to deal with the charges of importation of illegal products filed by the Government of Nicaragua against him. The lawsuit is for $50,000.
The Department of Global Affairs is prepared to consider making the requested payment in the public interest, while maintaining that it does not recognize any legal or other obligation in this particular case.
According to the appropriate Treasury Board directive, how should the department approve and make the payment in question to Mr. Tremblay?
