Mr. Speaker, I do not comment on RCMP investigations. On Friday, further to allegations made in the media and by the opposition member, I requested an RCMP investigation.

Mr. Speaker, it is precisely because of the allegations made last week that I took responsibility for requesting an RCMP investigation.
Audiovisual Productions October 18th, 1999
Mr. Speaker, I have already asked the RCMP to investigate. I think the RCMP is capable of investigating all the names, all the alleged names and all the people implicated in the matter.

Mr. Speaker, on Friday, the hon. member made accusations, following which I asked the RCMP to investigate. I hope he will let the RCMP conduct its investigation and shed light on the whole issue, instead of saying falsehoods here in the House.

Mr. Speaker, on Friday, I said just about the opposite of what the hon. member is claiming. I said that my office had no information on this issue and that I presumed that my department was aware of what was going on, since it had already arranged for a meeting with the police.

Mr. Speaker, no one from my office gets involved in a police investigation.

Mr. Speaker, I read in the newspaper that Canadian Audio-Visual Certification Office officials are meeting with Revenue Canada, next Thursday. So I presume public servants have been in touch with the police.
Audiovisual Productions October 15th, 1999
Mr. Speaker, I did not have any discussions with anyone about the investigation, because it is a police investigation. I respect that and I do not get involved in police matters.
Audiovisual Productions October 15th, 1999
Mr. Speaker, I myself found out about the investigation this morning. I believe the investigation is still going on and we should let the police do its job.
