Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, this issue has been brought to my attention recently as an issue which should be looked at. I can tell the honourable Member, at this point, that I have asked my department to examine the issue of the liability of court and perhaps other interpreters who work for our government. But as yet I have not received advice, nor have I formed an opinion about whether legislation or some other form of protection is advisable. But it is an issue that I have asked my department to examine. Thank you.
