The five-year expiry date is linked to the automatic review of the CEPA every five years. It is one of the elements of the review that does not have the scope it should have, because these agreements should last as long as the Act is not reviewed and amended. That is part of the things that the committee should consider and it comes under the prerogative of Parliament. Now, signed agreements that are working expire within the same timeframe and in our opinion that should be changed.
With regard to the three months notice, there is a follow up regarding the application of an equivalency agreement. If the federal minister of the Environment or the Health minister—that hasn't happened yet, but it could apply—feels that a province with which we have an agreement does not apply the same regime or does not provide the service that was expected, it could be amended provided there's a notice.
