I would certainly hope to think so, Mr. Chairman, through you to Mr. Kamp.
First of all, if you read clause 142, which is one-and-a-half pages long, and compare it to the section 35 that Mr. Kamp read from at the beginning of his remarks, which is two lines long, you will see there are a lot of words essentially to cover the ground he's described, but that appear to allow a lot of room for compromise.
I am saying there is room for compromise in the powers of the minister, working with his officials, and in the requirement of integrated resource management and planning, jointly with proponents of major projects and those who wish to express themselves at public hearings or directly to the minister in objection to particular proposals.
My major concern here, one of those concerns, is that you've replaced two lines with a page-and-a-half of language, and there are lots of subtleties if you dig into that language. The major one is, all the exemptions allowed that this minister can exercise in the subclause, which is about a half-a-page long.
