Madam Speaker, I am pleased to serve with my colleague, but she said something in her previous answer to my colleague from Abitibi—Témiscamingue that is not entirely true.
The House asked that the government submit the documents to the law clerk and parliamentary counsel, who could then pass them on to the RCMP, if the RCMP so wishes. The order is quite clear. It says to send the documents to the law clerk and parliamentary counsel.
Yesterday, the law clerk and parliamentary counsel confirmed in a report that some of the documents had not been sent and that the others were heavily redacted. It is time that the member acknowledged the primacy of Parliament and persuaded the government to hand over the documents so that we, as parliamentarians, can do our job properly.
