Mr. Speaker, I would like to direct my question to the Minister of Social Services. The Minister is aware that I have always been concerned about custom adoption. The process is done by a department, I believe.
The recommendation then is given to the court on whether or not custom adoption should be granted. However, Mr. Speaker, the problem right now is that there is a review on custom adoption and there has been a review now for four years, and while the review is going on there is a stack of custom adoption applications that have not gone anywhere. The people cannot afford to wait for the Department of Justice to do the review. I would like to ask the Minister whether or not he might consider going ahead and direct his department to start processing those applications for custom adoption so that people would not have to wait for another four more years if the review continues as it has.
