I would say the devil's in the details. That's very important. As both ministers have indicated, getting this right is extremely important.
At the same time, in terms of the prospect of transforming Wellington Street into a pedestrian zone, the timing for that conversation really couldn't be better, as the parliamentary precinct has changed and continues to change. Those three city blocks facing Parliament Hill were expropriated in 1973 for the expansion of Parliament. Increasingly, as Minister Tassi indicated, a number of parliamentarians will be located on the south side of Wellington Street. Within the next 10 years, approximately 50% of parliamentarians will be there.
Wellington Street, which used to be a border, is now figuratively running through the living room of the parliamentary precinct, and Sparks Street is running through the backyard.
