Mr. Speaker, let me advise the hon. member that I remain committed to ensuring that every woman has full access to the parental benefits that are in place. Regardless of the fact that we are talking about a small number of women who do not have full access to those benefits, every single parent should have the benefits of our services and we will find a way to ensure that.
