Public Safety committee  The state would have to take action first to render the sentence one that could be enforceable in Canada.

Public Safety committee  Yes.

Public Safety committee  I think all I can say is that there is no transfer application currently before Canada. There is nothing in this bill that on the face of it is relevant to the case.

Public Safety committee  I must say I think that's a question for the government to answer.

Public Safety committee  I think that certainly the government has always indicated its respect for committee work, and any motions or adjustments that are made at clause-by-clause would be taken into consideration.

Public Safety committee  I don't think I have anything to add.

Public Safety committee  Again, I haven't done a strict analysis to say yes or no to that. I know that those are two of the reasons that are cited.

Public Safety committee  I personally don't have those statistics, but I can certainly inquire as to whether they are kept or are available.

Public Safety committee  Yes, absolutely. In each individual file there would be an indication as to what the decision was, and if it's a denial, why.

Public Safety committee  That's correct.

Public Safety committee  No.

Public Safety committee  Yes. That's correct.

Public Safety committee  Again, I'd have to check and get back to you. Since then, there has been a bill tabled in Parliament in relation to the faint hope clause and it may be that the matter is covered off in that bill as opposed to in this bill. We'll check into that.

Public Safety committee  I don't think I can comment on that.

Public Safety committee  Yes.
