In fact, the intent behind Bill C-49 is to be as transparent as possible, but there are concerns about some of the confidential information that may be presented as part of the submissions. Throughout the act there are provisions to protect the confidential information. While the act didn't say that the reports had to be made public, we wouldn't necessarily oppose that, but we would ask that the confidentiality provisions would have to be safeguarded in order for a report to be made public, because certain information can't be in the public domain.
