moved for leave to introduce Bill C-234, an act to amend the Criminal Code.
Mr. Speaker, I thank the member for Kamloops for seconding the reintroduction of this bill.
This is the identical bill I introduced on March 17, 1994. Pursuant to special order of the House passed on March 4, I am requesting this bill be reinstated to the position it was in prior to or at prorogation. It was being considered by the justice committee. The effect of this reintroduction will be that the justice committee will once again be seized with this bill.
This bill would repeal section 745 of the code, which allows convicted killers to apply to have their parole ineligibility reduced.
(Motions deemed adopted, bill read the first time and printed.)
