Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you both, gentlemen, for being here.
I have a series of questions for data that I would like to have that the minister and his officials didn't have. I think, Mr. Head, it's the primary reason why we asked you to come, because we were told that StatsCan's Juristat didn't have this information, that it would be repositoried with you. So I'm just going to ask these.
There was a study in 1999 that showed the average age of incarceration for those found guilty of first-degree murder and not eligible for parole, up to the 25 years...they in fact stayed in to 28.5 years. From speaking earlier to Mr. Manson, I understand that this figure may in fact be higher now. Do you know that?
