Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the return was intended to assure interpreters that if they are working as officers of the court, and they are acting in good faith, their liability would be the responsibility of the employer. As employer, we would arrange for their defence. We would take responsibility for any of the consequences if liability should be found against our employees working for the courts in good faith. Thank you.
