Through you, Madam Chair, one of the things I'm most proud of within the service is that, through our advanced planning and management unit and the outreach that we've built through appropriate training, we get out front on these specialized groups to make sure they have the ability to come to Parliament Hill.
The service expects to have an open and free environment for Parliament Hill. As much as our role is to ensure the security of those at work and who come here, it's also to ensure that democracy unfolds. The service is not in place to put up any barriers for any protest. We have the use of the Hill committee, which all of the parliamentary partners sit on. Applications are reviewed and demonstrations will continue to happen on Parliament Hill. Even with an expanded precinct, they will continue to happen.
