When there are constitutional conventions that haven't been used in a very long time, we tend to believe they've been extinguished. I'm not sure if we would want to go back to a convention that hasn't been used in over 100 years, especially since we have a process that's already available to us. I don't know why we wouldn't avail ourselves of it, so I'm still a little confused.
If we were to hold somebody until the end of the parliamentary session while he was being investigated by the criminal division or the police, who has jurisdiction? I would tend to think we would normally be leaving this to professionals with day-to-day experience, but I think this committee is still trying to find its bearings.
