加拿大联邦审计总长的一份新报告指出，加拿大金融情报机构向警方提供遏制洗钱所需信息的速度迟缓。
Canada's financial intelligence agency has been slow to provide police with information needed to curb money laundering, according to a new report from the federal auditor general.
这份于周四提交众议院的报告称，工具不足以及提供金融情报的延迟，限制了加拿大金融交易和报告分析中心（FINTRAC）“有效履行职责”的能力。FINTRAC负责侦查和遏制洗钱及恐怖活动融资，在执法机构提出关切后，该中心平均需要约四个月才能提供金融情报。
The report, tabled in the House of Commons on Thursday, said inadequate tools and delays in providing financial intelligence had limited the ability of the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC) to "effectively carry out its role." FINTRAC, which is tasked with trying to detect and deter money laundering and the financing of terrorist activities, took an average of about four months to provide financial intelligence after law enforcement agencies flagged concerns.
报告发现：“根据我们对FINTRAC金融情报接收方的调查，半数受访者表示他们收到这些信息时已经太晚，无法发挥作用。”
"According to our survey of recipients of FINTRAC's financial intelligence, half of the respondents said they received this information too late to be useful," the report found.
