Mr. Maurino, I want to make sure that I don't mislead you or mislead myself. I don't think the committee is for a moment suggesting that we get rid of regulations; I think the issue that's surfaced before this committee has to do with how the inspection of the adherence to those regulations is conducted. It has to do with whether the inspection is solely by the SMS system or whether there is an inspectorate that is responsible to a government body and that runs parallel to this SMS system. Is that the most appropriate thing, or should it be an SMS system like the one being considered under Bill C-6, to eventually do away with the inspectorate?
