Again, my bill doesn't tackle and solve all of that; it just does the first step that allows any parliamentarian to apply for security clearance. As I said, it doesn't guarantee that you're going to pass it, and quite possibly there might be parliamentarians who would fail to get a secret security clearance. Again, it doesn't guarantee that you would get access.
Again, the advantages and the positives of this, as I highlighted in my opening remarks, are that it takes the politicization out of this. Regardless of what political party is in government, it doesn't put the government under a cloud of suspicion from the general public, because now you have members across all parties representing the people who have the clearance.
Should a committee or Parliament determine that they need access to certain things, that's a lot more powerful than any one of us standing up. That won't sway a government, but, when a committee determines that they need it, when Parliament as a whole votes on something, now you have the measures in place. It's not just going willy-nilly to whomever, who has no understanding of how to protect that information. You have gone through the process itself.
