Thank you, Mr. Chair.
On this amendment, I agree with Mr. Garrison and Mr. Easter.
When we debated this bill in the House, we had the opportunity to put questions to the Minister of Public Safety. It was said several times that not only does public safety need to be taken into account, but that civil oversight is important as well. The Minister of Public Safety was entirely in agreement with that, as were all of the parties in the House.
Given the last published report, I am having some trouble understanding why the Conservatives would want to vote against this amendment, which is precisely in keeping with what all of the parliamentarians subscribed to. Moreover, this would put some positive pressure on the Canadian Security Intelligence Service to ensure that its activities are clear and precise.
