Thank you, Mr. Chairman. My clock is not renewed yet. We are in a different section. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, section 10 reads:
10(1) Subject to subsection (2), the Commissioner in Executive Council may make regulations

(iii) the method of payment of the toll;
(b) describing types, classes and configurations of vehicles for purposes of establishing tolls;

(b) makes no material substantive change in an existing regulation.
Mr. Chairman, I was trying to understand this while I was reading it. Mr. Chairman, one of the things that the government does is make regulations in this regard, I mean, regulations of any types that arise out of any legislation. But with respect to this specific set of regulations that the government will have powers to do, what kind of process is he going to set up to determine all these details of regulations? How is that normally done? How is that done by the Minister? Does he do consultations or is there something that in this case the government will speak to the concessionaire or the Bridge Corporation about? Thank you.
