Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Most of the questions I would have asked have already been asked. I am on the Standing Committee on Legislation and was at a public meeting at 8:00 am in the Gold Room. However, no one from the public showed up other than the Members of the committee. I asked the Minister a considerable number of questions related to the consultation with the stakeholders. I was concerned that the public had not had an opportunity to provide input into this. It appears that opportunity was given to the public to provide their input and ask questions concerning the fee being a one time fee or an annual fee. The concern from the public I have spoken to was whether or not this would be an annual fee. However, no members of the public appeared at that meeting and I had asked the questions as to whether the stakeholders were advised of it, and the information I received was that they were.
