At this point even saying that it may only be two or three years may be a shorter timeframe than we might be thinking of. The oversight function of the federal government in the context of the bill, if adopted, provides authority for the minister to actually seek information from the body itself on how it's operating. It does give the minister that authority to request certain information about the governance of the body, how it's operating, how it's functioning, how responsive it is to complaints that are under investigation inside the body. It does give the minister that greater oversight, and until such time as the legislation would be changed or amended, that oversight would continue.
