My question is again for Mr. Bruce.
We know that companies often hold significant value in IP, intangible assets. The interim conditions that are proposed in Bill C-34 would block access to those assets in order to address the risk of national security injury that could arise during the course of the review of that investment, thereby reducing the threat to national security, while Canadian businesses can continue to operate with minimal impact and continue to review.
Can you talk a little more to the committee about the benefit of having these interim conditions and what sort of interim conditions you'd like to see?
