I will share my time with my colleague, who will also want to ask a question.
First, Mr. Chairman, I would like to congratulate you and your clerk because you arrived at this morning's meeting well prepared. I was very impressed to see that you referred directly to the relevant provision of the Standing Orders. I believe this should be pointed out. Congratulations for being so efficient! Members of Parliament also do their homework. I expected what happened to happen, especially after what you said at the beginning.
I discovered a supplementary estimate of $721,000 for the Military Police Complaints Commission. I would like the minister to explain to me why the commission, although it is unable to do the work it should be doing now regarding the prisoner issue, will receive an additional amount of $721,000. I would like the minister to respond briefly, because I have other questions on this subject.
