That would be appreciated, because at this point I'm not sure that anybody has articulated specifically what changes would be undertaken in this act that aren't already covered under the Lobbying Act. If something comes to mind, we'd be interested.
I think that whatever we do, we have to ensure that it be charter-compliant in addition to.... We have some very good people who are spending some time in public service, and we need to ensure that the public interest is protected but also that we protect the interest of the charter provisions for any former public office holder. I think there's some clarification we would seek if you have specific suggestions on that.
In terms of public office holders, there has been some concern with regard to former public office holders going to work for non-partisan agents or officers of Parliament. I wonder if you have any suggestions or thoughts with regard to folks who are considered to have been public office holders and who seek employment within the non-partisan offices of officers or agents of Parliament.
Do you have any thoughts, suggestions, or concerns with regard to this movement of a public office holder, post-employment, going to seek positions in those non-partisan, or what need to be maintained as non-partisan, environments?
