Mr. Chair, this, obviously, is a very serious issue and criminal proceedings are underway and civil litigation is also underway as I understand it. I did say that I would be happy to take a look at the situation once all those issues have gone by and determine whether we can do more without an inquiry.
I will look at the issue of an inquiry because I do not believe one should rule out anything, but the hon. member should know that Health Canada has made some fundamental changes and by the time the criminal proceedings and civil proceedings come to a conclusion we may have learned more. We may not need an inquiry to tell us what we already know but I would be happy to keep an mind open on the issue.
