Thank you, Mr. Chair.

My comments are to the same effect. The intent of Amendment BQ-13 was exactly the same: to define domestic violence.

This was requested by a number of individuals and groups who testified before the committee, including Louise Riendeau, from the Regroupement des maisons pour femmes victimes de violence conjugale and PolyRemembers.

I, too, am very happy to see unanimity around the table. All parties seem to agree and want to propose the same amendment on this important issue.

The Bloc Québécois will therefore be supporting this amendment.
