There's tremendous pleasure in having been a staffer who can now talk about his motion five years later at committee.
What we passed in 2014, I think, gives them the mandate, and that's why I'm sort of surprised that four and a half years later we're here, but I understand the accessibility issues.
The motion, as amended at the committee, reads:
That, whereas the Library of Parliament already scans Sessional Papers which are tabled in response to Order Paper Questions in the House of Commons, and makes the scanned copies available on the Parliamentary Intranet, that the Library of Parliament provide unfettered access for all Canadians to these same documents on the public internet site, and that such access be provided, from the beginning of the 40th Parliament and future scanned Sessional Papers, as soon as practicable.
We're in the 42nd Parliament now. I think that mandate is fairly clear.
