I would just add that we will be having a scheduling meeting, and I actually think that while the Senate is doing work on sanctions, this committee should do work on sanctions as well. I think that our regime is robust, and in defence of our government's work on sanctions, when the Magnitsky act was signed into law, SEMA—the Special Economic Measures Act—was also strengthened concurrently. In the practical aspect of working with our allies and like-minded countries on sanctions, the burden for us to be able to do the sanctions under SEMA is actually easier, we're finding, than Magnitsky, so that's one of the reasons we do that.
However, I will concur with Ms. McPherson that this committee should take some solid time on sanctions and come up with recommendations on both their application and their enforcement. Let's get some real data and let's get a way of doing it.
Until we do that, I would say that it would be premature to do this kind of a motion and that we can reconsider some of these issues when we do that study and make recommendations on it to the House.
Thank you.
