Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thank you to the witnesses.
If I could, I'll begin with you, Mr. Butler.
I understand that one of the concerns of Nature Canada is the current lack of mechanisms for any significant predecision transparency on the approval of living modified organisms under clause 6.
If there was a mechanism for the public to comment on such approvals, what information do you think could reasonably be provided by the public to enhance the decision-making process, given the relative lack of predictable and feasible ways to assess the impact of some living modified organisms on the environment?
