One of the pieces we'll be doing in addition to this legislation is supporting Treasury Board policy.
Something we're considering for that framework is to what extent and what actually has to be shared with the stakeholder groups. One of the things proposed currently is understanding and sharing with the stakeholder group what the costs are, the methodology for how you've determined the costs. So if you only meet with the stakeholders to change costs or modify costs every five or seven years, it's at least understood how that model would work.
The other thing that would be part of that discussion would be around the private-public split. Obviously, the government and the minister have the final say in terms of how much. From a user perspective, they might say it should be more public versus private. There's a tension there, but the idea is that there would be a discussion of that as well, all of which leads into the setting of the price and an articulation of that price, and a consultation in terms of that whole process.
From experience of talking with some of my colleagues in departments where they're already engaging with stakeholders, that's exactly the type of thing they've been doing in terms of pre-work. They've been developing their costing model and understanding what it's going to take, having an internal discussion, a public-private policy discussion, and then engaging with their communities and their stakeholders around what that is in terms of setting the fees.
