Mr. Chair, I'd like to move amendment LIB-1, that Bill C-22, in clause 2, be amended by replacing line 18 on page 1 with the following:
Governor in Council made under that Act; (c.1) with respect to a parent Crown corporation as defined in subsection 83(1) of the Financial Administration Act, the appropriate Minister as defined in that subsection; or
The rationale, Mr. Chair, is straightforward. It is simply to broaden the ambit of the act to include parent crown corporations. It's one of the most compelling examples. There aren't many, I should say, in the area of national security. There is CATSA, which is the Canadian Air Transport Security Authority. It's a crown corporation deeply involved in security matters. It is simply the aspiration of this amendment to extend the scope of the act to include parent crown corporations involved in this field.
(Amendment agreed to)
