Mr. Speaker, my question is for the President of the Treasury Board.
The Treasury Board recently published the Braiter-Westcott report on the conditions to be met in order to deal with the so-called millennium bug. According to senior officials, there will have to be a considerable reduction in legislative and regulatory initiatives between now and the year 2000 if readiness is to be achieved.
Are we to understand that, according to this report, the government should go into neutral so it can deal with the millennium bug and that there will be no more major legislation between now and the year 2000?
