Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Ms. Fralick, as I understand it, you want to delay the implementation of the reform, which comes into effect on July 1. You want it to be more than just a delay. You also want a roundtable to bring together the various partners, some of whom I named earlier. In response to Mr. d'Entremont, you kind of said all there is to say.
You also pointed out the inconsistency between the government's recommendations in the 2018 report by the Department of Innovation, Science and Economic Development, which reflected all that drive to stimulate the biotech innovation sector, and a reform that is strictly in the hands of Health Canada. As Ms. Perrault said earlier, the department has only a perspective in a vacuum, whereas we should have a broader understanding of the life sciences and take action on all levels.
What people want—I imagine it is what you want too—is to set up a roundtable. However, would you agree to a compromise, a phased implementation? It would mean going ahead with the reference list of countries, which appears to be a concession, from what I've seen in a number of papers, and establishing the roundtable, then sitting down and discussing the rest of the issues.
Would you agree to that proposal, Ms. Fralick?
