Mr. Speaker, it is very important to remember what the debate is about, which is access to the Hill. I was a staffer when I watched Yvon Godin get stopped from crossing the road to get to a vote a few years ago. It is really important that this gets to PROC to have a discussion and figure out how to solve the problems so this stops happening.

How important does the minister consider it to be to get this thing out of here and into the committee where we can study and resolve the problem?

Monsieur le Président, il est très important de se rappeler ce sur quoi porte le débat, soit l'accès à la Colline du Parlement. J'étais membre du personnel lorsque j'ai vu Yvon Godin empêché de traverser la rue pour aller voter il y a quelques années. Il est vraiment important que la question soit renvoyée au comité de la procédure pour que nous en discutions et déterminions comment résoudre les problèmes pour que cela ne se reproduise plus.

Selon la ministre, à quel point est-il important que la Chambre renvoie la question au comité où nous pourrons étudier et résoudre le problème?
