BC government lawyer argues for privacy of harassment and bullying allegations against RCMP in Surrey's policing dispute.

The lawyer's comments come during a hearing on Surrey's challenge to a directive by Public Safety Minister Mike Farnworth, ordering the city to transition from the RCMP to the municipal Surrey Police Service. Surrey alleges the province overstepped its authority in the process.
