That's correct.
Mr. Chair, I support this amendment in part. Specifically, while I oppose proposed paragraph (a), I support proposed paragraph (b) of the amendment.
First, the right to a healthy environment under CEPA applies to the whole act. Singling out specific issues or programs that are current preoccupations undermines the approach. As well, CEPA is an enabling statute, and as such, it is meant to last through changes in priorities.
I have a longer explanation here, Mr. Chair, but I will just let that stand.
