Member File Biography @ PARLINFO

Mr. EMMERSON.

They cannot be dealt with unless they are approved. It would not be proper to bring them before the public ; that might very well serve the interests of those who wished to indulge in speculation, hut I do not think it would serve the public interest.

Wilfrid Laurier (Prime Minister; President of the Privy Council)

Member File Biography @ PARLINFO

Sir WILFRID LAURIER.

The attitude of the government is that as these plans have been deposited, but not approved, they cannot be brought down. I supposed this would commend itself to the sentiment of my hon. friend (Mr. Boyce) and therefore I understood that the hon. member would not proceed with his motion.

We would like to consider that a little ; there may be something in what is said, but I am not absolutely sure that this is right.

Mr. R. L. BORDEN.

When this Bill was in committee before, I understood from the Minister of Justice that he had some observations to make on the subject, and also that he would prepare and put in proper form certain suggestions which had emanated from some members of the committee and which my hon. friend who is moving the Bill (Mr. Smith) seemed prepared to accept rather than have any further discussion. I observe that the Minister of Justice is not here this afternoon.

Sir WILFRID LAURIER.

The observation of my hon. friend (Mr. R. L. Borden) is quite correct ; the minister (Mr. Fitzpatrick) was to look into the point which was suggested to the House by my hon. friend from St. John and Iberville (Mr. _Demers). Unfortunately the Minister of Justice has to be absent from the House to-day and therefore I would move that the committee rise, report progress and ask leave to sit again.

Progress reported.

it would not be advisable to go on with this Bill. As two private members' days have been taken and as we are anxious to have a discussion on this Bill, although of course in the absence of the ministers, we could not very well have it to-day, I would ask the Prime

Minister to assist me to have it discussed at some future date if the taking away of the private members' days should interfere with it ?
