Madam Speaker, I have a related question for the hon. member who just spoke.
At the beginning of his speech, he indicated that Bill C-57 was part of a modern regulatory framework. That is understandable. We have to keep up with the times.
On the whole issue of access to information and the use of electronic communications to transmit any type of information, I was wondering if this was satisfactory? Is the hon. member satisfied? He did point out that this was a large piece of legislation. I am not as knowledgeable as our hon. colleague, but I am concerned because of the major challenges we are facing. I will not run down the list, but there have been scandals and, in one instance, privileged and confidential information held by a financial institution was made public.
Given the large number of amendments contained in Bill C-57 and the large number of acts in relation to financial institutions affected by these changes, I was wondering whether it had been necessary to improve security once again around the whole access to information issue, particularly where the privacy of individual citizens is concerned.
