We were very saddened to learn of the passing of an honorary member, Mr. Peter Dobell, on December 18, 2020. Mr. Dobell was made an honorary member of CAFP in 2006 in recognition of his near four decades of support of the Parliament of Canada.
The establishment of the Parliamentary Centre in 1968, the Centre for Legislative Exchange in 1971 and the Parliament Business and Labour Trust in 1986 were landmark events in the evolution of effective support services and developmental opportunities for Senators and Members of the House of Commons as well as the committees and delegations on which they serve.
