Thank you, Mr. Chair.
One of the components of the bill, and the mandate of the future commissioner, would be education. It will be necessary to educate people on the registry and its obligations. In the example the member gave, a public office holder is approached by an individual. The public office holder, who is properly informed and suspects that the individual is operating under the control of a foreign state, would be able to check whether that individual is registered. They could consult the registry and see that the person is not registered. Then, if the commissioner is doing their job of informing and educating, the public office holder could notify the commissioner if they thought they'd had an interaction with someone operating on behalf of a foreign state. This is another way in which the commissioner could be notified of a registration violation and could take action accordingly.
