Mr. Chair, it is an administrative change.
I have learned a lot at committee: that a comma matters, that “may” and “shall” matter. Today it's “and” and “or”. This is to swap one word for the other.
In clause 236, an "and" separates proposed paragraphs 524(2)(a) and (b). Since the hearing in question should be held in any of the circumstances listed under proposed subsection 524(2), the appropriate term to be used is “or”.
This amendment replaces “and” with “or” to ensure that the hearing can be held in any of the circumstances. That's why I am proposing LIB-14.
