I think the exercise is very much a worthwhile one. I have just gone through two months of work in connection with the Kyoto Protocol Implementation Act. We had to draw up tools and address that, as we rightly should, for Parliament.
While the round table will fully accept whatever new obligations Parliament and your committee wish to see us fulfill, I wanted to stress this morning that our resources for doing the quality of job you people want in connection with all this are limited. The Auditor General, or the Commissioner of the Environment and Sustainable Development, has far larger resources than we do in connection with this. I was in no way trying to say that we're not prepared to take on these new tasks. I just wanted to show how we would have to share the burden within the department with our existing.... It means that we could bring forward fewer policy reports.
