Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I have a question for the Minister of Justice. Mr. Speaker, on March 22, I asked the Minister a question regarding the governments liability for physical or psychological abuse which could be sustained by youth who are sentenced to territorial young offender facilities. The Minister tried to answer but stated that he would review Hansard tomorrow and pick up where he left off. Mr. Speaker, recognizing that once reviewing the question I did not feel it was a legal opinion, I would like to ask the Minister to indicate to the House whether his department has evaluated the legal liability faced by this government for physical or psychological abuse which is inflicted on young offenders while they are residents of open custody and secure facilities. Thank you.
