Mr. Speaker, time allocation has been a problem. It has been used more often than need be.
Bills of this complexity, whether they be on the PRPP or copyright, need time. We are constantly hearing that the debate has gone on for a long time or a number of years. However, there was a historic shift in this last election whereby approximately 110 new members, including members on the government side, were elected who had not taken part in the prior debates. For that reason alone there needs to be a thorough debate of the bill.
Any bill that has such complexity and such division needs to be debated until consensus can be found.
