Yes, there will be a few points.
I think we have changed this to “the annual report”, which means that it wouldn't be on the kind of substance-by-substance basis that would increase the administrative burden.
I don't know how many times I'm going to say this. Right now, what we have is a requirement to update on progress, and that is not the same as giving reasons for the delay and giving time frames within which the instruments and the proposed regulations will be published. I think that ultimately the public expects a high level of accountability. I think we have adapted this motion to put in some flexibility. If there is a concern about having the statement made jointly, if we wanted to just strike the words “made jointly by the ministers”, that would be a very easy fix.
Someone else will have to propose this subamendment, since I can't amend my own amendment.
I do hope that we can move forward with this to ensure that we have strong accountability for the public.
