Mr. Bigras, certainly the strategic environmental assessments are being reviewed now, as the government reviews the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, and I would expect that the review would include consideration of whether they should be legislated as opposed to just being put into play through cabinet directive.
I can't really sit here and say to the committee that I think Parliament should pass this law or another law. That's up to you to decide, sir, not for me to comment upon. What I'm commenting on here is a proposal for a specific law, and I don't mind commenting on that. To tell Parliament that you should have a law to take care of SEAs I think would be overstepping what I should be saying.
