Thank you, Chair.
My understanding of the old act is that the inspectors had certain powers. What we're looking for in this particular case, under new clause, 27.1, is that:
27.1 A peace officer must provide such assistance as an inspector may request to enable the inspector to exercise their powers or perform their duties or functions under this Act.
It's actually now presently found under subsection 23(3) of the Plant Protection Act. What we're looking for is to include it in this piece so that if indeed an inspector feels they can't get something done and would need the assistance of a peace officer, the act explicitly says it and they can then request the assistance of a peace officer. The peace officer would then know, under their jurisdiction, that indeed under this act that peace officer can act accordingly and would come forward.
It's just that simple check.
