As Richard said, there are some clear swim lanes that the department stays within, because we know there are other ministries that have responsibilities. A really good example would be something like issues surrounding credit cards. That's clearly under the Bank Act. That's clearly the Ministry of Finance.
In that respect, it's not a lot different from the way we administer framework policy. Industry Canada has broad responsibility for framework policies, but if you get into issues like culture, then the framework policy is managed by the heritage ministry. If you get into things like finance, that's clearly under the Bank Act, and it's clearly the finance ministry.
That analogy works well on the consumer affairs side too. We have broad interests in consumer issues. We subsidize, provide some funding to consumer groups across the country, but specific issues may well fall within the purview of a different ministry.
