Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Ms. Dawson, for being here today, and to your staff with you.
I can appreciate the fact that you don't want to focus on penalties. I share the common belief and goal that this is really a process of getting to disclosure and leaving it at that. However, penalties do come up for discussion and I just want to flesh that issue out a little bit.
You mention in your annual report that you had implemented a penalty scheme provided for by the act and that you concentrated initially on compliance within 60- to 120-day deadlines for initial declarations by reporting public office-holders. In the next fiscal year, how do you plan to expand the penalty scheme to apply to the other requirements of the act? What are your priorities in these areas?
