Again, we haven't conceded that the SPP be an extra oversight mechanism or filter through which Health Canada, for example, would have to determine the changes they decide to make to Canada's policies falling within their mandate. They're the ones who best know the stakeholders with knowledge or interest in a particular area. I think the onus would rest, and should rest, with them. It would then go through the appropriate parliamentary committee—I'm not sure which—so the people who follow those issues are able to provide input and oversight.
