Basically, it's quite close to the same ruling that applies to amendment NDP-13.
Amendment BQ-7 would grant the minister the power to extend the number of regions, and in my opinion the amendment diverges from the current conditions of the royal recommendation in a way that could increase the number of eligible claimants, which would impose an additional charge on the public treasury. Therefore, I would rule that the amendment is inadmissible.
