Thank you.
Further to the explanation provided by Madam Loth-Bown, with new proposed subsection 119(2.1), the consultation that would take place would be that, whenever the information or indigenous knowledge is received in confidence, it needs to be provided for the purposes of “procedural fairness”. That's not the other half of proposed paragraph 119(2)(b) but the first half, which deals with “procedural fairness” in the context of the impact assessment. The other half, civil proceedings, is not being consulted on because that would be directed by the rules of court that are applicable in whatever legal proceedings this information may become relevant subsequently.
Therefore, new proposed subsection 119(2.1) is applicable only to “procedural fairness” in that moment related to the impact assessment.
