I think what we've historically done is that we've said a report comes back to Parliament underneath the code, and a report comes back to the Prime Minister underneath the act. The decision is made by the Prime Minister, and the House makes the decision under the code. Recommendations are made only by your commissioner. There aren't penalties. We've historically been reluctant to give these officers of Parliament—or agents, we can call them—power to do things that are your responsibility, which is disciplining members.
I don't know that you're going to have any sort of consensus on giving a commissioner the power to fine in any real sense in a punitive way. What they have now are $500 administrative monetary penalties, which your Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner can impose, but we all know that's not really much of a disincentive. It's $500. Maybe the question under that regime would be whether that penalty should be greater, but it's really up to all of you to vote in the House about disciplining and censuring one another. I don't know that you want to give that to the commissioner. We haven't historically wanted to.
