Thank you, Mr. Chair. I'll attempt to use my time efficiently.
Thank you, witnesses.
I want to go back to the competition policy review panel and their advice before the amendments were tabled in 2009. I'm going to ask questions specifically around the fact that these amendments through Bill C-60 are attempting, as I see it, to bring greater clarity around certain concepts and to extend timelines for national security reviews.
What I want to know is whether within Industry Canada, you received advice that it would be helpful to review and clarify the term “national security”, which currently isn't defined within the act.
