    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. This is a matter that has been before the Departmental Committee on Lands of this House. It is a matter that the Committee has interrogated for quite some time now. The Committee has visited the area, but it has been having several twists here and there in the process of our investigations. As we talk today, the Committee received another letter from owners of the Dominion Farms. It was written to us via their lawyers Kaplan and Stratton Advocates. No sooner had we concluded the work on this particular issue, than the issue of sub-judice arose. It is after we got that particular letter. The Committee has to dig further to know whether this matter could be in court or not. For that purpose, we cannot conclude this Petition. We need to know whether the matter is in court or not. Unfortunately, the directors of Dominion Farms have been summoned to appear before my Committee three times. They were supposed to appear before us today, but we just received a letter indicating that the matter is sub judice . Therefore, allow the Committee a few more days to interrogate further and conclude this matter. If it is before court, then we will advise the Hon. Member for purposes of disposing of this Petition."
