Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.

I'm seeking clarification on what the extension of cabinet confidence is as it relates to legal opinions and the relationship this has with our parliamentary privileges as members of Parliament to be able to seek adequate clarification or adequate information to make decisions.

Does the amendment exclude any type of legal opinions, and if so, on what basis?
