Thank you. I'm sensing that we're clear on it up here. I just want to make sure that members are okay with that.
Ultimately, what we're suggesting is just a tightening up of the wording, for clarity, as well as the addition of a provision—however the wordsmiths want to write this thing up—that simply suggests that the Ethics Commissioner would not be offering up files and paperwork, but it would just be a reference to the matter, that this is his or her belief.
We'll get the wording, but just so the members are aware of what we're attempting to do, so when we get it back and we read it over, it actually says what we have now just agreed to do.
Okay, that's perfect.
Are you comfortable with that? Are there any other comments on that particular aspect?
If other folks have questions, please bring them forward to me.
Mr. Walsh, on page 10, at the top, under section (ii), “Opinion and Inquiry procedure”, I wonder if you can just explain that to me. I've read it over. You're not suggesting a second process, whereby the commissioner would report to a committee first or provide a draft or preliminary review to a committee before tabling in the House?
