Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'm not qualified to talk about seeds, but in general CFIA has excellent regulatory co-operation with many other jurisdictions that do assessments similar to CFIA's.
We also have international standard-setting bodies. For food, it is Codex Alimentarius. For animal health, it's the World Organisation for Animal Health, and for plants, it's IPPC. We work through those organizations but also bilaterally and also with like-minded partners in terms of exchanging regulatory practices, in terms of their assessments. We pool the assessments and share best practices among ourselves on a very regular basis.
