Mr. Chair, I'll move this amendment.
This amendment proposes that the parliamentary budget officer be considered “a federal board, commission or other tribunal” for the specific purpose of subsection 18.3(1) of the Federal Courts Act. This would allow the PBO to seek an opinion from the court on “any question or issue of law, of jurisdiction or of practice and procedure”.
I think this would deal with some of the concerns and amendments in terms of information which Ms. May raised earlier.
