The hon. Secretary of State for Combatting Crime is a cabinet member and therefore may move the motion.
Pursuant to Standing Order 67.1, there will now be a 30-minute question period. Members will recall that the precedence for questions during the 30 minutes is provided to the opposition, but not to the exclusion of some members from the government side.
Members should keep their interventions to approximately one minute and may speak more than once.
I now invite hon. members who wish to ask questions to rise or use the “raise hand” function so the Chair has some idea of the number of members who wish to participate.
The hon. member for Kamloops—Thompson—Nicola.
