Madam Chair, I have a point of order.
I would like to raise a point of order concerning a request I made on June 18 for answers to my written question from our study on the subject before us today.
My question was put to Dany Drouin, the director general of the plastics and waste management directorate at Environment and Climate Change Canada.
Madam Chair, that was three months ago, and we still have not received a response. As you can understand, I am frustrated by having to ask the committee again for an answer to a question I asked a while ago. This is completely unacceptable, in my opinion, and it shows the lack of transparency of this government, which is unable to follow up on a simple matter after three months.
I did not table a motion to that effect today. I am simply reminding the government, through the committee, that we want co‑operation, along with transparency and answers to our questions. I am asking this one simple thing today as we begin our meeting.
I do not want to take up any more time. However, I hope that we will finally get straight answers once and for all to our questions. It's also out of respect for the members of the committee. We take time to do research and prepare. Unfortunately, it is clear that we get no co‑operation from the government when we ask simple questions.
I would ask that you, Madam Chair, and the clerk take measures to get an answer to my simple question. Here is my question.
I just wanted to know who will be managing the mandatory federal plastics registry. It's a simple question. We're looking for a simple answer.
Thank you.
