Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I would move a friendly amendment to the motion, because I think Mr. Ravignat's motion is premature. I say that because Madame Legault has already undertaken to provide this committee with a fairly helpful and substantive overview of similar jurisdictions, and the cost structures of ATI requests in similar jurisdictions. I think all members of this committee today have probably found some of the information provided in the materials, the charts, and her testimony before this committee to be very interesting and compelling. Certainly there's a shared optimism that she's been able to get closure rates down. She's been handling the 30% increase, but we do see the 30% increase by departments, and for some of the commercial departments it's far higher than that, and for the security departments it's far higher than that.
I think to really see how this system could work best and whether the five-dollar level from 1983 is the appropriate barrier to what was described as the frivolous or nuisance requests that are potentially bogging down the system and adding to costs, I think the overview that Madame Legault will be undertaking for the committee, comparing our system and processing fees, and showing the charges and those sorts of things, is an important piece of information that, I think, all members would want to have.
My friendly amendment would be to defer Mr. Ravignat's motion until after the undertaking from Madame Legault to this committee is fulfilled and committee members have had time to review it. His motion would become live at that time.
It's a friendly amendment.
