    "content": "Hon. Speaker, the matter of death-row inmates is actually a matter that this House and this country must pronounce itself on. In the last Parliament, I raised this matter because one of the problems that we have with the correctional system is that we have many people who have been convicted on death- row sitting in our prisons leading to congestion among other problems. Some of those are the problems that we have been having with crimes being committed from prisons. This is even a problem with the prison authorities. I have had conversations with the prison authorities and the matter of death-row inmates is a problem even to them. Some of those fellows have been sitting there for over ten years. They have been convicted, but they do not know their fate. They are sitting in prison and consuming public resources. That Petition is timely."
