Kelly Block at the Government Operations and Estimates Committee

Thank you.

I would suggest that if you're watching the finance committee and some of the questioning of some of the ministers there, the only law that doesn't provide exemptions is the Criminal Code.

Here's another question for you. If there is no provision in the use of these powers that would exempt a minister from using them, then there is no provision that exempts a minister from using them while Parliament is prorogued. Why is there no restriction on the use of these powers when Parliament is prorogued?
