I would like to rebut, Mr. Chair, very briefly.
Proposed section 103.03 requires—t's a “shall” for the minister, not a “may”, Mr. Chair, and I think that is the difference between the two rulings.
As well, it says “shall” indeed, and then it continues on under proposed item 103.03(1)(a)(iii)—the same proposed section that says “shall”, not “may”—to say “spending or fiscal measures or incentives”. I would suggest, Mr. Chair, that indeed it would require royal recommendation based on the “shall”.
