Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Foreign Affairs.
It is becoming apparent that the mandate and operation of the Canadian International Development Agency needs a thorough review. The OECD, the academic community and the Auditor General have all demanded changes to CIDA. We hear reports and we read all the time that CIDA's mandate may even be at cross purposes with the humanitarian objectives of Canadians.
Will the minister bring in enabling legislation so that Parliament, not cabinet, can debate and eventually direct CIDA's mandate?
