The Mounties are not disputing a report that they have identified more than 1,000 cases of missing and murdered aboriginal women and girls.

The Aboriginal Peoples Television Network reported that the RCMP arrived at their tally after contacting other police forces across the country.

APTN also reported the Public Safety Department is sitting on a copy of the RCMP report, which the network says was supposed to come out March 31.

Supt. Tyler Bates, director of national aboriginal policing and crime prevention services, referred questions to the RCMP's media relations office in Ottawa, which did not deny the APTN report.

But Sgt. Julie Gagnon says the RCMP report is not finalized and it would be premature for her to comment further.

Public Safety has yet to respond to questions.
