Thank you, Minister.

You have spoken about coercive control. On November 25 last year, the Standing Committee on the Status of Women tabled its report, along with recommendations, on criminalizing coercive control.

Are you telling us that our committee influenced the Department for Women and Gender Equality's development of Bill C‑16 and contributed to the report to some extent?

See context to find out what was said next.
