Mr. Speaker, my question is directed to the Minister of Finance.
Last week, when we asked the Minister of Finance to table his bill that would amend the Income Tax Act, so as to eliminate the use of family trusts as tax loopholes, he simply maintained that the ways and means motion tabled had already taken effect. Of course the motion takes effect when it is tabled, but subsequently, a bill is required to amend the Income Tax Act.
Contrary to what the minister claimed last week, he must table a bill to amend the Income Tax Act. Consequently, when does he intend to table this bill?
