There's no debate; they do.
If you read the section, Mr. Chair, this is an absolutely convoluted appeal process. It reads an appeal process in law that is upside down and backwards, if I could say so. If the minister does not make a decision with respect to the application within 90 days, the minister—and it goes through the wording “the application is received”—is deemed to have decided not to remove the applicant's name from the list. It's backwards.
The minister should have an obligation to respond to appeal, not to be lackadaisical and not respond and carry on forever and a day. This is not due justice and not fair, and I appeal to the government on this one. For Heaven's sake, let's have a proper appeal process and not a farce.
