Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Deputy Prime Minister.
On January 28, the Prime Minister said that the capture of prisoners by Canadian troops was just a hypothetical question. But, more than a week earlier, Canadian soldiers had already captured prisoners and had so informed their superiors in a significant incident report.
Does such a report have to be sent or communicated to the Privy Council Office or to anyone else in the government? In the present very specific case, was the report sent to the PCO, and when was it received?
