Mr. T. C. DOUGLAS (Weyburn):
I
should like to direct a question to the associate Minister of National Defence (Mr. Power):
1. Has a regulation been issued by the Department of National Defence denying leave to members of parliament on active service in Canada who may desire to attend parliamentary sessions?
2. Would the minister care to tell the house the nature and purpose of any such regulation and if a similar regulation is in operation in Great Britain?
Subtopic: LEAVE TO MEMBERS OF PARLIAMENT ON ACTIVE SERVICE IN CANADA TO ATTEND SESSIONS
