I thank the ministers for being here today. My questions are for Minister Blaney.

In order for law enforcement to track child sexual predators, there has to be a certain level of coordination between CBSA and the national sex offender registry. Bill C-26 would heighten accountability by changing procedures related to the method of notification of absences abroad by registered sex offenders.

Could you please elaborate on this portion of the bill? What information will be shared between the national sex offender registry and CBSA officials as a result of the amendments to this bill?
