Well, in terms of the onus, you're right, it's on the lobbyist. There's no responsibility on the public office holder. Having them report to me is an interesting question in terms of mandate. It changes the mandate of the act in terms of placing it on the public office holder. Having, as you say, both coming in would be problematic, first in tying it to a registration. Right now, the monthly communication reports that the lobbyist files are tied to a registration. Having the monthly communication report come in from the public office holder, who may have several meetings, would be quite the administrative challenge in trying to match that with the registration.
