Although I will be voting with Senator McDowell if there is a division, I am inclined to accept the Minister's statement. If the Attorney General, for example, is precluded, because of the possibility of a criminal prosecution, from making germane information available to the Cabinet, it is unlikely that people would breach the doctrine of Cabinet confidentiality.
