We are looking into it. There will be a vote on this particular motion. The level of public interest is high, and I see that as a positive thing coming out of this most tragic event.</p>",

Nous faisons des v\u00e9rifications. Cette motion va faire l'objet d'un vote. Le public s'int\u00e9resse vivement \u00e0 cette affaire et je pense que c'est un \u00e9l\u00e9ment positif qui ressort de cet \u00e9v\u00e9nement fort tragique. </p>"
