Your recommendation is just to leave it as is, and what I'm putting to you is that this leaves a lot of room for a lot of lobbying that goes on under the radar. I would submit that this is a problem.
Similarly, with respect to registration by default, which is the recommendation of the Lobbying Commissioner, you stated that this would create a burden, particularly for small businesses that engage in a small number of lobbying activities.
There's a very simple solution, and that is to create an exemption. Why not provide a general rule of registration by default with a narrow carve-out, just as is the case in the British Columbia legislation?
