Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.

I too want to thank the witnesses today for taking time out of their busy schedules to be here for us.

My first question is for Mr. Brazeau, president of the Railway Association of Canada.

Under the transportation information regulations, as you know, railway companies are required to report specific safety data to Transport Canada on a regular basis. According to the Auditor General's report on rail safety, Transport Canada “did not provide sufficiently detailed guidance to the railway companies on how to report their safety data”.

My first question is this: What do your members tell you about these transportation information regulations?
