We had a presentation earlier from the Professional Institute of the Public Service of Canada, from Mr. Grenville-Wood, general counsel. He has a different view. He'd like to see it separated out. There's no doubt he'd like to see it as separate legislation. But he also adds, in his conclusions, the following phrase: “while meeting the overall objective of having pay equity the subject of negotiations between the employer and the various public service unions”.
To me, that means he also agrees that it should be part of the employer-union agreement package. Again, just so you hear this, he said, “while meeting the overall objective of having pay equity the subject of negotiations between the employer and the various public service unions”. Based on that, I think he agrees that it should be part of the agreement.
I know you don't have it in front of you, but perhaps you could comment.
