It is a crime to destroy government documents under the Access to Information Act. That crime is much more egregious if those documents have been requested in a legal proceeding. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5626574\" data-originallang=\"en\">Could the chair of the committee advise the House and all Canadians if the future agenda of the committee will include the destruction of government-held documents. </p>",

Au titre de la Loi sur l'acc\u00e8s \u00e0 l'information, il est ill\u00e9gal de d\u00e9truire des documents gouvernementaux.
