Thank you, Chair. I have a further question, just to clarify this issue.
I know the Senate more or less added this part to the bill on some of the concerns we heard in testimony about how it was very much agreed about the need to limit, reduce and ultimately eliminate animal testing. In what seems like a refining of the language here, Ms. Taylor-Roy mentioned that she tried to put it in a positive way, and certainly when I read through this, it looked like a refining of the language to find the right balance that is necessary, as was mentioned, for the health and safety of Canadians when there are not other scientific methods. I'm just wondering if the changes do in fact refine. I'd like to clarify that a bit.
I know that Mr. McLean asked about this as well, but does this clarify and make more definitive exactly what the responsibility of the government is and what the impact is on research and industry? Does this fit within what is required to actually be reasonable while attempting to accomplish the intent to reduce and eventually eliminate animal testing?
That's for whoever is best to answer.
