I want to thank you for being with us, Mr. McPhail.

New section 45.37 authorizes the commissioner to establish service standards and time limits with which the Commission for Public Complaints Against the RCMP must comply. Yet no cooperative agreement with the RCMP has been concluded.

We are imposing service standards on the commission, but not giving it the ability to, in turn, impose time limits on the RCMP in their response to complaints. Do you not see that as a contradiction?
