Thank you, Chair.
I want to focus on one aspect, and this was actually raised by another witness. It's something I asked about previously: the independence of the commissioner of the registry. Sorry, I don't have the formal name, but you know what I'm talking about.
At this point there would have to be, as I understand it, consultations with the House Commons and the Senate on the naming of that person, but the commissioner would be appointed by an order in council. Is there any way to strengthen the independence of that person? Does the commissioner appear sufficiently independent based on that sort of appointment process to the witnesses?
