Thank you. I think that answers one of the questions I had.

Moving along, certain stakeholders believe that the surface rights board should have the power to deny access to lands where appropriate, linking the board's jurisdiction to this concept of the commonly known free entry system in Canada.

Could you please explain why the surface rights board would not have the power to deny access?
