Minister, it's always great to have you here.
Lady and gentlemen, thank you to all of you for being here.
Last week, Minister, we had the corrections investigator at committee. We questioned him about the review that was being undertaken. One of the recommendations was to increase inmates' pay. I think there would be many Canadians who would be dismayed that any kind of allowance or pay would go to prisoners. He seemed to be under the impression that this increase is necessary, and he's quite content that inmates never use their pay “to purchase illegal drugs”.
Do you agree with that?
