Wallin quits Senate committees, report says

Conservative Senator Pamela Wallin is stepping down, according to The Globe and Mail.

The newspaper said the chair of the Senate’s national security and defence committee asked for time away from her duties for “personal reasons.”

She’s also reportedly left the Senate’s foreign affairs committee and the subcommittee on veterans affairs.

Wallin was appointed to the senate by Prime Minister Stephen Harper in 2009.

She is one of four senators who are currently having their expense claims audited by an external firm.
