Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I thank Ms. Bendayan for letting Mr. Morrice speak. Actually, I think that Parliament should review its procedures and fully recognize parties with fewer than 12 members. That would be a great help to democracy.
I have a question for the Department of Finance on the GST portion of Bill C-56. We've talked about this at length. The bill contains no specifics on the type of buildings or housing that will be covered, nor any affordability requirements to qualify for the GST rebate, but it does give the government the authority to clarify these matters through regulations.
Why aren't the eligibility criteria for the rebate in the bill? It's unusual in terms of taxation.
