Yes, and if you're really concerned about this burden, something systemic could be done: Reverse the onus and just have all of you and all public office holders register in the registry people who communicate with you with regard to your decisions. That would take the burden off all lobbyists and put it onto the government. However, the commissioner has testified that there isn't really any burden.
I agree. I've done the registration. It doesn't take long. The updates don't take long. I have a lot of other things to do. Democracy Watch only has a couple of staff people. I have a ton of things to do, but it's something that takes almost no time at all to keep updated.
