Mr. Lessard's point is correct: the government has indicated that they will be setting up an employment insurance commission; I forget the exact acronym. It means that this will be at arm's length from government, which, in my view, impacts upon the decision of whether or not a royal recommendation is actually required. I'm wondering what the procedure is for questioning and putting forward the view of the committee that we think it shouldn't require a royal recommendation based on that.
