Mr. Martin:

That depends upon what is regarded as a matter of substance. I think my hon. friend and I had better look at the regulations and refresh our memories in the matter.

Mr. Mcllraith:

The information asked for in this question is not available in the form in which it is asked for, but there is a considerable amount of related information available in a publication which I am sending to the hon. member. That will be supplemented by further information that may be available, but it is not possible to answer the question as it stands, and I suggest that it be dropped.

Member File Biography @ PARLINFO

Mr. Mcllraith:

"Statistics of Criminal and Other Offences for the Year Ended September 30, 1948." The information for the year

following has not yet been compiled, and in any event the information is not compiled in the way asked for in the question; it is compiled on the basis of the time of trial. As to the third question, the information as to suspension of licences is not available.

I might add that since nine o'clock this morning I tried to reach the hon. member a great many times and was not able to do so. The whole question of the form of preparing statistics on criminal offences is now being studied with a view to changing the method.
