Certainly with the issue of reliability of the instruments, we have done some reliability testing to look at the internal consistency of the instrument itself, and we have found it to be internally consistent. However, as the Auditor General's report pointed out, a good risk assessment tool should also be reliable in the sense that two different raters will arrive at the same evaluation they give an offender when using the instrument.
Toutefois, comme la vérificatrice générale le signale dans son rapport, un bon outil d'évaluation des risques doit également permettre que deux utilisateurs différents en arrivent au même classement.
