Justice committee  Section 7 has to do with the French term “produit préemballé”.

Justice committee  For this provision, we would prefer to ask a representative of the department to come in and explain it to you. I think they'll be in the best position to give you a full answer.

Justice committee  Are you asking why the term “bâtiment” is used?

Justice committee  The amendment corrects the French version so that it refers to the correct act, the one mentioned in the opening words. The existing text reads as follows: Les bâtiments, à l’exception des embarcations de plaisance, qui sont inscrits sous le régime de l’article 108 de la Loi sur la marine marchande du Canada, chapitre S-9....à l’entrée en vigueur de la partie 2 sont réputés être inscrits dans la partie du registre... b) soit, dans le cas d’un bâtiment...en vertu de la présente loi,...

Justice committee  Yes. It should not state “de la présente loi”, but “la loi visée dans les...”

Justice committee  Yes.

Justice committee  We received confirmation from the Department of Veterans Affairs that there are no more beneficiaries of the benefits targeted by these before we included it.

Justice committee  Yes.

Justice committee  My understanding is that it no longer exists. The act under which it was established was repealed by the Budget Implementation Act, 1995.

Justice committee  The exact reference is in the notes.

Justice committee  I found the information for which clauses address issues raised by the standing joint committee. There are 12 of them. I can read them off if you want.
