Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is for the Minister of Justice. Yesterday the Minister advised that if I were able to inform him of any reason for speeding up access to the pilot project victims' statements, that he would consider approving that. I think today I pointed out an incident that has happened within the last week in Yellowknife, and I was wondering if the Minister would advise me how many more cases like that he would like me to bring to his attention before proceeding.

Mr. Speaker, I would not expect the Member to provide me with numerous examples of that kind to encourage me to pursue his request. I would note, though, that there was quite a lot of consultation that went into the development of this program among various agencies involved in the administration of justice, and I would feel obliged to consult again in order to complete an earlier evaluation, which would take a little bit of time. But I have taken careful note of the Member's eloquent statement today, and I can assure him that I will see what I can do to complete an earlier evaluation than had been planned initially. Thank you.
