I think it's unfortunate that we're not having the full conversation right now, but that's the way it is. It's also unfortunate that some of the witnesses this committee heard from previously, who are well-known and have a great deal of experience in the field, did not have the opportunity to see the directives and the actual consultation proposals before they were here to testify. I'm sure they would have had interesting things to say.
There are some things that I think are matters of consensus. Getting rid of a cabinet exclusion is one of them. Having an entire class of documents which, at the say-so of an official, nobody ever gets to look at and nobody ever has access to I don't think is acceptable. I don't think you've heard any witness saying that this is a good idea and that we should keep this and please do not touch it.
It's not part of the proposals. I think it's important that it go in.
Duty to document is another one concerning which I think it's important for this committee to urge the government, if they're going to do a limited number of amendments, that it should be one of them.
