"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"9255527\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, my colleague is concerned that the legislation is being rushed or not being adequately reviewed, but he also mentioned that the legislation would address the gaps and delays for the information that law enforcement needs in order to catch criminals. Also, law enforcement has publicly supported the legislation, and the member's colleagues have repeatedly mentioned that lawful access does not mean an expansion of or access to private information. I wonder, which is it? </p>",

Or, il a aussi mentionn\u00e9 que le projet de loi comblerait les lacunes et r\u00e9glerait les retards en ce qui concerne l'obtention des renseignements dont les forces de l'ordre ont besoin pour arr\u00eater les criminels. De plus, celles-ci ont publiquement appuy\u00e9 le projet de loi, et les coll\u00e8gues du d\u00e9put\u00e9 ont mentionn\u00e9 \u00e0 maintes reprises que l'acc\u00e8s l\u00e9gal n'est pas synonyme d'acc\u00e8s ou d'\u00e9largissement de l'acc\u00e8s aux renseignements personnels. Qu'en est-il au juste?</p>"
