Thank you, Mr. Chair. I promise I will get to a question.
Ms. Dawson, I fought the last election on the Federal Accountability Act, largely, because I believed Parliament needed to be held to a higher ethical standard. I wanted Canadians to feel confidence in the federal Parliament. Your office is a creation of the Federal Accountability Act, and I welcome it wholeheartedly.
You made a number of statements about the reporting, and so forth, that you will be doing, the powers given to your office.
Just very quickly, is it your opinion that the creation of your office should provide Canadians more confidence in Parliament, that you will be able to report to them largely on Parliament, and that the Federal Accountability Act will be effective in assuring them that the House is held to a higher ethical standard?
