A man carrying a concealed knife has been arrested outside Parliament Hill's Centre Block in Ottawa.

The man was apprehended by the Parliamentary Protective Service today.

"The Parliamentary Protective Service apprehended a male for carrying a concealed knife outside of Centre Block," said Cpl. Brigitte Mineault, a media relations officer with the RCMP, in an email to CBC News. "The subject is in custody."

Cpl. Valerie Thibodeau, a different media relations officer with the RCMP, told CBC News that charges were pending.

The Parliamentary Protective Service was created in the wake of theOct. 22, 2014, shooting on Parliament Hill.

That day, gunman Michael Zehaf-Bibeau ran onto the grounds, hijacked a ministerial car and stormed Centre Block with a hunting rifle and knife, after having shot dead a Canadian Forces corporal at the National War Memorial across the street.

Following the attack, there was criticism about confusion and lack of security co-ordination during the incident.

The RCMP had been responsible for security on the grounds of Parliament Hill, while the House of Commons and Senate had separate protective services inside the building.

The Parliamentary Protective Service, which assumed control of Hill security in June, reports to the RCMP National Division, "with accountability to the Speakers of the House of Commons and the Senate."

The April federal budget committed $36 million over two years to improve security on Parliament Hill.
