Okay. Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
The amendment I am proposing is that clause 3 be amended by replacing lines 13 to 17 on page 3 with the following:The purpose of this Act is, in conjunction with any other applicable rule of law, to avoid conflicts that are likely to arise or be perceived to arise between partisan activities and the official duties and responsibilities of any person who works in the
office of an agent of Parliament
The difference is a couple of new words—“in conjunction with any other applicable rule of law”—and the deletion of “an Agent of Parliament or”. Those words are deleted. That again, as I said in my previous remarks, is in response to the testimony we heard as we went through this bill.
