Questions On The Order Paper September 18th, 1996
Mr. Speaker, my hon. friend is right. There has not been an answer yet to his question.
I think he would recognize that the question which was asked was one that required some detailed information from a wide variety of sources. I am sorry to say that we do not have the question available. We will have it as soon as it is available. I am sure he would realize that the very scarce resources available in the departments for these kinds of matters involving very specific questions, which is what in fact has been raised by my colleague, just do not make it possible to make the information as forthcoming as he would like it to be. In order to make it accurate, we are doing the very best we can.
I know that does not satisfy him in terms of an answer but that is the best answer I can offer my colleague.
