The Civilian Review and Complaints Commission for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (CRCC) is an independent agency. Created by Parliament in 1988, the Commission ensures that public complaints made about the conduct of RCMP members are examined fairly and impartially. The Commission receives complaints from the public and conducts reviews when complainants are not satisfied with the RCMP’s handling of their complaints.
The Commission is not part of the RCMP.
In 2022, the government proposed a plan to reform the commission into the proposed "Public Complaints and Review Commission" and to assign the new commission the added responsibility of overseeing complaints against the Canada Border Services Agency.[1]
