Eva Plunkett

Eva Plunkett was the inspector-general of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) from December 2003 until her retirement in December 2011. She also criticised what she considered to be unreasonable delays by CSIS to provide her with the necessary information to perform her duties.

Plunkett spent 28 years serving in the Solicitor General's office.

In April 2006, Plunkett explained that she believed that emphasis was needed on "traditional" roles of counter-espionage, such as defending classified secrets, rather than focusing strictly on the war on terror.

Plunkett also served on the Board of Advisors for Carleton University's Canadian Centre of Intelligence and Security Studies program.
