    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to start by commiserating with the hon. Member’s watchman and all those others who lost their money in this very tragic and unfortunate scam. Unfortunately, the Attorney-General’s Office is a fairly small office. We do not have the resources to help private individuals to recover losses from this sort of scam. Our job is made even more difficult by the fact that we must track the prosecution. It is a succession prosecution that establishes the facts upon which a civil remedy can be granted. In this House, there is pending a Bill, which I hope we shall enact soon, on consumer protection. My Office has sought to make amendments to that Bill in order to strengthen the hand of the Attorney-General to protect the public interest in consumer sort of related situations. So, I would like to assure the House that I am as concerned as it is. We should never have a repeat of this sort of scam."
