Thank you, Mr. Speaker. It is an issue that's common to all jurisdictions and I have had discussions with other Justice Ministers about their concerns in the past. I think the first step is this review and having the federal government listen to the concerns of the various different jurisdictions.
Specific to the most serious cases, there are tools and there is the ability in the act for youth to receive adult sentences, but I would say that I think our concern would be in the area that even when we're talking about very serious offenders, a judge has a difficulty in sentencing a youth to a custodial sentence. Everything in the act points to doing many other things before we get there, and I think that's where our main concern would be. The act really only allows custody in the most serious of cases, and we're not sure that's exactly effective as it has been set out now and as it has been working. So we understand the intention, we're just not sure, and we want to have some discussion with other jurisdictions, but we aren't sure that this is working in all cases. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
