If we follow the lead in the national security policy and we recognize that the Prime Minister was clear to distinguish between the responsibilities of the Minister of Public Safety and those of the Minister of Transport, and in that regard focused the attention on marine transportation security in the Marine Transportation Security Act and kept matters of national security separate, then it would not be consistent to bundle these together in this instance. It would not be consistent with the government's national security policy.
