Mr. ILSLEY:

This question relates entirely to the business of private companies and it is not the practice of the department to disclose such information. The mover not being in the house, perhaps the question could stand. I hope it will be dropped.

Mr. ILSLEY:

The answer to a part of this question would disclose the business of private companies and therefore to that extent the question cannot be answered. There is no objection to answering the rest of the question. I suggest that it stand as an order for return.
