Mr. Speaker, I have a question for the Prime Minister.
Today the Commissioner of Lobbying testified that the Lobbying Act prohibited her from disclosing whether she was investigating any matter. Yesterday, however, the Prime Minister announced that his office was cutting off all communications with the lobbying firm, Navigator Limited, while the Commissioner of Lobbying was investigating ethical breaches by the firm.
Consequently the Prime Minister has undermined the confidentiality required by the Lobbying Act and compromised a potential investigation.
Why did he do this and when did he first find out about it?
