Public Safety committee  Right. We would take that complaint and we would investigate it, as we would investigate any other complaint.

Public Safety committee  Or refer it—

Public Safety committee  Yes. I believe that in my comments I indicated that when we look back on the cases that we have dealt with since 2015, we identified a potential of six cases, six complaints—

Public Safety committee  Not six reviews, but six complaints, which would, under an interpretation of the current legislation, had the new agency existed, require the commission to send them to—

Public Safety committee  Yes, we would deal with the complaints.

Public Safety committee  I said two things. One, the number of cases in which that would come out based on past practice would be very small. Two, we believe, absent a definition, we would be able to deal with those cases through discussions between ourselves and the new agency.

If there are legal proceedings because of the conduct of an RCMP member,

Public Safety committee  I will heed Mr. McKay's warning and limit myself to a few brief remarks.
