Thank you very much.
I'd like to now go to Minister Mihychuk.
Welcome. We are pleased that you're here.
I do like to hear your comments. I believe my hearing of the witnesses around the table is that there was a lot of consensus. We've heard about the 2004 pay equity task force and have heard agreement around some key pieces, with regard to having stand-alone legislation that is separate from other legislation; with regard to the need to have a focus on pay equity that's separate from the Canadian Human Rights Commission; and with regard to how what we've done around a complaints-based process has not worked.
I think many of us are going back to the recommendations of that task force and looking for ways that they can be implemented. I wonder if you share that view of that task force. A lot of people testified, but there was consensus in that report around those recommendations, albeit not on everything, and we have certainly heard that here at the committee level as well.
