As you pointed out, this was a commitment in both my mandate letter and that of the Minister of Canadian Heritage. We're working collaboratively on the court challenges program. I know that officials from our department appeared before this committee, and I would commend the study that this committee is undertaking with respect to that program.
I live by the philosophy that to achieve those commitments and to do the best job we can in doing so, we need to embrace the expertise and diversity of opinions that exist around this committee table and across the country. I very much look forward to the recommendations this committee will bring on the court challenges program and how we can ensure that the monies that are being allocated to that program are used most effectively. I welcome those recommendations as well as other recommendations and studies the committee wants to undertake.
