I'll do my best, Mr. Chairman.
This follows up on the theme raised by Mr. Comartin about technologies that could be available but that are limited by the security provisions put in place by technical services. In my own office we have a printer-scanner-photocopier, but we can't hook it up to scan documents into our system. It makes a considerable difference to our efficiency in dealing with documents and our ability to, for example, have them in an electronic format, which could then be used whether I'm here in Ottawa or in the constituency office. Any effort to overcome this particular inefficiency would be appreciated.
I don't want to suggest that the reasons why it is currently prohibited are not reasonable, but it would be nice to see them addressed, if possible, while being respectful of the concerns held by IT.
