Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
It's a pleasure to move CPC-5. This amendment is meant to drive as much precision as possible into the route of exposure, the form, the use or any specific marker related to the list of toxic substances. This would ensure that the substance that is risk managed under the act is limited to that which has an unacceptable risk of exposure. This precision is all the more important for schedule 1, part 1, substances, where the proposed risk management outcome is the prohibition of that substance.
The intent behind this committee is to drive as much precision and to have as much clarity as possible in the regulations to ensure that, especially when something is being banned or prohibited, both industry and Canadians know exactly what that means and that there's as much detail as possible surrounding that.
