Thank you, Chair.
Earlier I think one of our colleagues brought up the testimony from Richard Phillips. If the government, through funding a project, is already assisting the industry itself in the development of important metrics and measurements, then this particular clause is asking essentially to do the same thing, only now we're asking the Grain Commission to take on a role that I don't believe the Grain Commission currently plays. I think our officials could probably either confirm or deny that for us. I wouldn't mind an opinion from the officials.
But if that's the case, I don't recall a single witness at this committee who asked that the Grain Commission undertake that particular function. Maybe our officials could comment on whether this is a new regulatory authority being established.
