Madam Speaker, Question No. 93 standing in the name of the hon. member for Québec-Est relates to contracts for services, supplies and leasing awarded by the Department of Public Works and Government Services since October 25, 1993, in all federal constituencies in Quebec, and to the list of government properties located in these same constituencies.
As you can imagine, the list is long. The government has been working on a response ever since the question was received. I understand that it is almost ready and I will table it in this House as soon as possible. I hope that the hon. member can wait that long because there are many items to put down on that list.
The government owns many properties, as he knows, and he also knows that the department in question has a great many contracts in the province of Quebec and that, with 75 constituencies, the list will be very long. I hope that he can wait for all the information to be compiled in response to his question. I will be tabling that response in this House shortly.
