Thank you, Mr. Chair.
With regard to clause 9, we're looking at suggesting the following amendment or adding the following amendment. It would add after line 4 on page 6:
The members of the Council must be representative of all parts of the early learning and child care system, including private and home-based child care providers and public and not for profit child care providers.
Again, this goes back to what we are pushing for after listening to the witnesses, stakeholders and everyone around child care in Canada. The council is a great piece for having people give feedback and for chiming in, but right now, the way it stands, the council is not fairly representative of all child care sectors. What we're asking with this amendment is that the council be representative of all parts of the early learning and child care system—so to include those other representatives whose voices are currently not on the council.
