I'm wondering if I'm looking at it in too simple a fashion, in the sense that the member seems to say that it would appear that there's a current consequence if it's deemed by the House and you are removed from office. One of the primary reasons, if not the primary reason, for the legislation is that an MP or a senator might take pre-emptive action by resigning prior.
So the issue is whether or not there is a simpler way to prevent the MP or senator from being able to take such an action to prevent the consequence of losing their pension.
