Ordinance of 14 February 2007 on DNA Profiling for Civilian and Administrative Purposes [ DNAPO ]

In reference to the issue of destruction of profiles seized from young offenders after the retention period has ended, profiles and biological samples for young offenders are stored in the National DNA Data Bank in accordance with the provisions of the DNA Identification Act and the Youth Criminal Justice Act.

The following are the main improvements made by Bill C-13 that still have not come into force: allowing courts to make DNA data bank orders against a person who has committed a designated offence but who was found " not criminally responsible by reason of mental disorder" ; adding Internet luring of a child, uttering threats, criminal harassment, and " criminal organization" offences to the list of designated offences; moving " robbery" and " break and enter into a dwelling house" and child pornography related offences from the list of secondary offences to the list of primary designated offences in order to increase the probability ...[+++] that a court will make a DNA data bank order; creating a new category of 16 extremely serious offences for which the courts will have no discretion whatsoever and must make the order; broadening the definition of secondary designated offences for the purposes of DNA data bank orders to cover all offences under the Criminal Code or the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act that are punishable on indictment by five years or more; including now-repealed sexual offences — among others, indecent assault male, indecent assault female and gross indecency — in the list of sexual offences designated by the retroactive provisions; simplifying the effective taking of bodily substances of offenders on release who are subject to a DNA data bank order, by creating a procedural mechanism compelling the offender to appear at a certain time and place to provide a DNA sample; and finally, Bill C-13 proposed, although this is still not in force, ensuring that an offender's DNA profile remains in the data bank until the order against him has been rescinded.

The act created the National DNA Data Bank, which began operations upon proclamation and is responsible for two indices: the convicted offender index, which contains the DNA profiles of offenders convicted of designated offences as identified in section 487.04 of the Criminal Code; and the crime scene index, which contains DNA profiles of bodily substances recovered from crime scenes of designated offences.

In the summary that precedes the text of the bill, we see that it amends the provisions in the Criminal Code respecting the taking of bodily substances for forensic DNA analysis and the inclusion of DNA profiles in the National DNA Data Bank and makes related amendments to the DNA Identification Act and National Defence Act.
