That's what happens when you do housekeeping. All you have to do is say the word “housekeeping”.

The Chair Liberal Deb Schulte
Say it's “housekeeping”, and everybody is good.
We're now on PV-51, Ms. May.

Again, we're on the same page. This would amend the bill by deleting parts relating to the establishment of rosters involving energy regulators.

The Chair Liberal Deb Schulte
I just want to make sure you know that if it's adopted, LIB-36 cannot be moved because there will be a line conflict.

Next is LIB-36.
Mr. Fisher, is this housekeeping?

Darren Fisher Liberal Dartmouth—Cole Harbour, NS
All right, Mr. Fast, another housekeeping amendment, and this one is an easy one. It's just a spelling mistake.

Thank you, Madam Chair.
Now we're dealing with issues that relate to indigenous rights, a recommendation proposed by the Assembly of First Nations to include a roster of persons who are members of first nations, Métis, or Inuit and who may be appointed as members of review panels. It's an insertion of a new paragraph 50(d) to follow proposed paragraph 50(c) on page 34.

Madam Chair, once again this deals with having a meaningful public participation. I've spoken to it many times, so I don't think it's necessary to dwell on it further.

Once again, Madam Chair, this is another reference to indigenous knowledge, and I think I've spoken enough about that.

PV-53 again relates to issues of impact assessment and the regulators. In looking at what is to be included in the conclusions, I'm replacing line 29 on page 34 with additional factors. This recommendation came from the Canadian Environmental Law Association. It is that the review panel report provide a rationale, conclusions, and recommendations in relation to all of the factors listed in section 22 and the public-interest considerations listed in section 63 of the proposed impact assessment act.
