Mr. Speaker, I raised an issue during my Member’s statement, which is the process of the Opportunities Fund. A constituent contacted me the other day and basically emphasized their concern and fear that either other companies are eyeing this or potentially some companies could be coming back for this fund without Members being fully involved in a process going forward, one that’s both transparent as well as involves Members.

My first question to the Minister of ITI is what process will he be developing to ensure that Members are involved in being part of the Opportunities Fund, whether it’s knowledge or in the sense of discussion if this type of loan is warranted? And will he be considering these sections I highlighted earlier, which was under the FAA, section 67(1.1), and certainly section 5 on the guarantees and indemnities regulation.
