Thank you very much, Mr. Chair, for having me here today.
Just because we've focused quite a bit on regulatory sandboxes and the confusion that surrounds them, maybe let me focus on a few direct questions.
First of all, perhaps just to clarify a comment that came up from my colleagues across the table, sandboxes are somehow beneficial for the big guys, not the little guys. Actually, my understanding is that, really, sandboxes are designed exactly for the opposite: to help innovators, to help small and medium-sized businesses, to support economic growth and to help us support innovation and productivity.
Deputy Matthews, could you speak a bit to how we ensure regulatory sandboxes are accessible to small and medium-sized businesses, which certainly wouldn't have the same resources as large organizations?
