Thank you, Chair.
Amendment NDP-31 seeks to amend proposed paragraph 24(1)(b), so that activities it authorizes may only occur on electronic information and information infrastructure as described in proposed paragraph 18(a) of the CSE act. This in only in furtherance of its cybersecurity information assurance mandate. We've heard a lot of this notion of cyber-weapons. The idea here is that we're making sure the establishment is not collecting this type of information in the use of more offensive capabilities, because any back door that exists being used by the good guys—and I don't always care for these terms—could potentially be exploited by bad actors as well.
