Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I have already spoken earlier in the House this week with respect to my support for this legislation being brought in. I would also like to thank the Minister for his response to our request and I would only be repeating what my colleagues have already said if I got into detail on this. I have seconded the motion and have promised and made commitments on numerous occasions when I have spoken at events that were convened by women who work in shelters, frontline workers, that legislation would be passed during the life of this government. So I am happy that it looks like we will be able to go home and report back to our constituents that this is happening and that it will make a significant difference in the lives of victims of family violence. With that, Mr. Speaker, I would like to request a recorded vote. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
