Mr. Speaker, I wish to remind the Hon. members that the Sims' report was tabled at the end of January and the bill he alluded to was introduced a year earlier.
During consultations on the Sims' report, in Toronto, I had the pleasure of meeting representatives of the RCMP. They made representations about their desire to come under the Canada Labour Code. I took note of their representations. I have completed consultations on the issue, and I am in the process of preparing my report to cabinet on amendments to part I of the Canada Labour Code. I am sure that when I have completed this task, the Hon. member will be able to learn the outcome, and he can then comment on it.
