I acknowledge my colleague's comments. However, my sense is that this decision has been made without any consultation across party lines.
Mr. Chair, given my colleague's government's commitment to greater consultation, I would say that the opportunity to ask officials how the process works will provide clarity for our colleagues. Again, the email that came out last week I think provided even less clarity and having them here prior to the end of reading this bill on how these changes will impact the significant changes that are being made to the Citizenship Act I think would be highly beneficial.
