Sorry, Chair, perhaps for a point of clarification, I should note that in British Columbia there is no doubt that the Personal Information Protection Act applies to B.C.'s provincial political parties. A ruling of our office held that federal political parties operating in British Columbia were also covered by the legislation. That is the point that is now in dispute before the courts, just to be clear, just that aspect.
