With regard to the allowances under PIPEDA to collect personal information, we need to clarify which parts of proposed section 7.1 we're discussing. In proposed paragraph 7.1(3)(a), we're just describing which ones are in and which ones are out. Proposed paragraph 7.1(3)(b) means that the allowance that is normally in PIPEDA is no longer available. So it's clear that private companies that are attempting to collect personal information by an unauthorized access to a computer system cannot do so. That's the clarification contained here.
