Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to the officials for being here and answering our questions. I'd like to pick up on the question that Mr. Jackson asked about the administrative monetary penalties.
I'm back on this committee after a nine-year gap. A decade ago, the Chief Electoral Officer was at this committee asking for additional monetary penalties. In addition to what you just outlined, the reason was that there's a really big gap between a criminal threshold and $5,000. There were a number of things that, if they were penalties, might have been pursued, but they didn't really warrant going the criminal route.
Is this also a way we can address those issues that wouldn't go before the courts but were bad enough that they should warrant a high fine?
