Thank you, Mr. Speaker. In my Member's statement today, I referred to the recent decision of the Legal Services Board to no longer attend Justice of the Peace Court in the Beaufort-Delta. I am concerned that there are circumstances where a person should be represented by a lawyer in JP court. Can the Minister tell me whether a person appearing before a JP for a bail hearing would be eligible for a Legal Aid lawyer? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
