Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I would like to thank my colleague for proposing this amendment.
Mr. Newman tried to outline the separation of powers. As to defining roles, other amendments that will be considered later on, including amendments LIB‑27, LIB‑28 and LIB‑30, seek to clarify roles. That is precisely what Mr. Godin was talking about.
Ms. Boyer, can you explain what the impact would be if amendment CPC‑41 were adopted? Mr. Newman noted a few points. The Official Languages Act and the role of Treasury Board are involved, but the Commissioner of Official Languages, Parliament and the courts are also at issue. I think this is really important. We all have the same objective.
Ms. Boyer, in view of the machinery of government, can you explain these elements in terms of the role that Treasury Board can or cannot play?
