Madam Chair, in relation to that amendment, I would just remind our committee of the rail study we did. I don't even remember the timing or when we did it. It was shortly after we came back in the 42nd Parliament. Recommendation 12 in that study stated:
That Transport Canada immediately develop legislative and regulatory structures to mandate the use of locomotive voice and video recorders by railway companies, and that effective rules be put in place to ensure recordings are used exclusively by the appropriate government authorities during Transportation Safety Board accident investigations or in subsequent criminal investigations to which they directly relate.
I believe Mr. Aubin's amendment is in keeping with the recommendation we made in the rail safety study report.
