It is the actual operations that I, as a member of Parliament, am concerned about.
We've already had numerous incidents here in which, for instance, the RCMP failed to understand the necessity for members of Parliament to get to votes in the House of Commons and in which the Speaker found the prima facie case of a violation of privilege. Unfortunately the Conservatives voted not to investigate that.
Certainly these new proposals you're making here lead to some important questions, if the Speakers have no role with regard to operations and ensuring that the RCMP adheres to practices regarding privileges necessary to members of Parliament.
