First of all, the reason for proposing the bill is not because it is consistent. The reason we are proposing the bill is clear, it is a cost recovery initiative with respect to the examinations. The Standing Committee on Legislation advertised their view of the bill. The industry had an opportunity, at that time, to make a comment. I am not sure whether they did or not. Perhaps the chairman of the Standing Committee on Legislation could advise us whether they did. There was provision made for public input through the Standing Committee on Legislation procedure.
