The Liberals presented a plan to the House of Commons on Dec. 2 designed to end the dispute over the public release of sensitive documents related to the firing of two scientists from Canada’s top biosafety laboratory.

Government House Leader Mark Holland proposed that one member of each party and a designated alternative be assigned to a special committee to review the documents, and three agreed-upon retired judges would then determine what information could be released to the public.
