Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I guess I would be surprised that there would be no formal sort of discussion that this would flow, especially after the conflict process was concluded, a decision was rendered, the House had spoken and made decisions and end of report, is my understanding of any special committee work. That aside, Mr. Chairman, when I look at the Public Service Act and I refer to section 16 referring to appointments:
Subject to subsection 16.1(1) and 17(2) and (3), the Minister has the exclusive right and authority to appoint persons to positions in the public service.
It refers to "exclusive". This act would have priority over the Interpretation Act, which is just very general in nature. I would like to know if there are any other acts that would have this wording that the Minister has exclusive right and authority. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
