Mr. Chair, since this amendment isn't going to be moved, I'd like to move one right now. The clerk already has it.
It concerns the passage in clause 10 of the bill, at lines 33 and 34 on page 7, which I propose to replace with “if he considers, based on scientific grounds and independent evidence from the applicant's provided information, that it is unreasonable or unattainable”.
Let me explain. At present, it's the industry that provides the justifications. We know what happens, and I can give the example of Louis Robert in Quebec. The industry has too much influence on decisions. If these decisions were to also take into account independent studies, that would balance things out.
