Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I discussed this with the draftsperson of the bill and summaries, in fact, are never changed in bills even if they have spelling mistakes or other problems with them because the summary is not actually part of a bill. When the bill actually appears in its final form, the summary will fall away, as I understand it, and the bill will stand alone without the summaries. So there's no real authority to amend a summary and because a summary's not part of the bill, that portion will not be taken out. You may wish to hear from Mr. Aitken further on that. He might be able to clarify it.
