Mr. Speaker, I had the opportunity to discuss reform of the Young Offenders Act and the renewal of the youth justice system with my provincial colleagues in Montreal in December. I can do no better than repeat that I intend to respond to the standing committee's reporting in a timely fashion. I look forward to working with the hon. member when that report is tabled.
In the House of Commons on March 16th, 1998. See this statement in context.
