I'll be very quick.
I'm thinking about this in a hundred different ways and trying to figure out what the best way to proceed is.
The reality is, I don't have an agreement. Until it's tabled in the House, even though it has supposedly been signed I don't have it. I have to report on what I have at hand today. I think that was our game plan. Translation requires this time frame, so they required this deadline.
I think we have to proceed with the interim report, table it in the House and then look, moving forward, at how we can proceed further. We can adapt an interim report. In the final report we can change things around and have our final report afterwards.
As for the implementation legislation, I'm not sure what it looks like either and how it's going to work through the House. I agree with Mr. Blaikie that the time frame is really very tight.
The other thing that I think is very important is that we're listening to witnesses right now who haven't seen the agreement and are laying out their expectations. I want to know what those expectations are so that when I look at the actual agreement I can weigh it and say: “Wait a minute. You were told in your consultations with these guys that this is what they expected, and here is what you delivered.”
I think we have to highlight some of the problems that happened in this agreement so that they are never repeated again, and the interim report will help us do that.
