Just as an overview, all legislation goes to a committee once it's passed its second reading in the House of Commons. This allows members to review the legislation, regardless of whether it's a justice committee, a finance committee, a natural resources committee, an environment committee. The committees are structured by the function that the legislation relates to.
The other important function of all committees is—and we were doing it earlier today, actually—to review the budget aspects of the department that reports to this committee. Today we had the Minister of Justice come in to defend his spending for the next year.
I would say that the committees only meet four hours a week, two hours at a time, but there's lots of preparation time prior to each meeting, and many members have more than one committee to go to.
Blaine.

To be frank with you, I've been around 10 years and I've never seen a letter come in that way. It may be part of the procedure but it doesn't happen.

Maybe in theory it is supposed to come here, but I have never seen it.
The other thing you should know is that the committee itself is not involved in the appointment of judges.
Do you have another question?

We did have our researcher check on your previous question.
A letter is sent from the council to the Minister of Justice who could pass it on to the committee for review, but I think the system is so good, in terms of vetting who becomes a judge, that we have very few issues with judges. When we do, they seem to quit before that happens.
Do you have another question?

I want to thank you for joining us today. It was an honour to have you here today.
We're sorry we have to cut this short because we actually have to go and vote in a few minutes.
Enjoy the rest of the week in Canada. I hope you take away as much as you are giving here to us in the Canadian judicial system.
The meeting is adjourned.

Ladies and gentlemen, I'm calling this meeting to order. It is 3:30.
Today we're at meeting number 74 of the Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights. According to the orders of the day pursuant to the order of reference of Wednesday, October 8—that seems like a long time ago—we are studying Bill C-590, an act to amend the Criminal Code in regard to blood alcohol content, which was referred to committee.
Today's witness for this bill is the mover of the bill, Mr. Hoback, who is the MP for Prince Albert.
Mr. Hoback, the floor is yours for 10 minutes.
