Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Minister Ali, I want to make a statement quickly, and also ask one question.
I've been surprised, since we've started to discuss more publicly regulatory sandboxes, by the amount of misinformation that has been circulating. I find that a section of the proposed legislation seems to always be picked out of context, and I want to point to it. It is the one that speaks to granting a minister the authority to make an order exempting an individual, association or organization for a period of not more than three years from the application of a provision of an act of Parliament under their responsibility or an instrument made under such an act.
I find that when these statements are made, they're taken out of context, and people then come to conclusions that are absolutely incorrect. There is a policy online that people can read. It's a policy on regulatory sandboxes that is really well composed. It provides scope, context, definitions and principles. It provides accountability, roles and responsibilities. I understand that there's never anything perfect, but I think a very first step, when we make public comments, is to read what's out there, what's been provided by bureaucrats who do exceptional work.
That's an important comment that I wanted to put on the record.
My question is completely different, and it is addressed to Deputy Minister Matthews. It follows Ms. Kusie's line of questioning with respect to the comprehensive expenditure review.
From that line of questioning, I'm getting a sense that there has never been, and there won't ever be, any savings from any comprehensive expenditure review the government does. Do you want to comment and maybe expand on that?
