Mr. Speaker, in these cases, the card that we use as government travel card is the Diners Club enRoute card on which no interest has to be paid.
The normal procedure is for a member of Parliament to pay directly the amount with his or her cheque and then to send it to the department which then checks the expenditures. The process the member is talking about could not have taken place. I am assured that the member has paid all the payments that were demanded of her and that all her personal expenditures have been reimbursed.
