I think it's six members from elsewhere in Canada and six local members. When we made our presentation, at the revision stage, it lacked a little biodiversity, as it were. It was mainly business people. I've got nothing against them, but it would have been interesting for a broader variety of people to be present.
I think committees have to be established at the local level. The NCC is still dealing with the fact that it has a national mandate but that its action is local. Those two aspects clearly should combine. As regards the Commission's decisions, having regard to what could be called the separation of powers, particularly as regards Gatineau Park and possibly the Green Belt, there could be local committees. That would enable joint action at the local level.
In recent years, there has been a lot of grumbling. Lands have been put in the non-national interest land bank, but we've never known how or why. In that sense, I believe that a lot of friction could have been avoided. The Commission holds its board meetings publicly, but obviously fewer people attend them during the day. I think the local population would prefer to be part of a committee that had a more restricted mission and handled really local issues.
