One of the things that I think we, and a lot of people, are increasingly concerned about, which I didn't expect to come forward at this committee, is resourcing. It's important too. The Minister of Public Safety had said that there will be no new financial resources required to do the things that are required under this act. If there are no new resources, in my view, the job won't get done.
We know now there are cutbacks in the RCMP to the point that they're having to move personnel from criminal investigations to anti-terrorism investigations. I say that just to raise the point that funding is an important issue for us to be able to do what needs to be done in dealing with terrorism analysis.
Mr. Wark, I went through your long submission as well. I do appreciate your work and the fact that you've outlined in there a number of recommendations. In your longer paper you do talk about—and you mentioned it as well in your remarks—the elephant in the room being the CSE.
Can you expand on that somewhat? CSE is certainly not mentioned in the bill, as you say in your submission, but how important is it that all the elements related to public security and national safety be looked at for accountability and oversight reasons, the whole combination?
It's not just enough to do SIRC when you're talking of a bill of this magnitude. Can you perhaps expand on that.
