A member across the way says that it is not so, or he is questioning whether it is accurate. I will read to him the relevant sections of the red book at page 95:
In particular, a Liberal government will appoint an independent Ethics Counsellor to advise both public officials and lobbyists in the day-to-day application of the Code of Conduct for Public Officials. The Ethics Counsellor will be appointed after consultation with the leaders of all parties in the House of Commons and will report directly to Parliament.
Are members opposite listening?
