Thank you for the opportunity. We, of course, during the committee review stage, spoke with the government about this, and I think that we have come to cross purposes, because what my colleague, the honourable Member from Frame Lake, has said basically encapsulates where the committee was coming from. This is about best practices. This isn't about ensuring one way or the other that there is an outcome; it is about addressing the concern that, rightfully, is a concern of anyone entering into these agreements is properly dealt with.
It gives confidence, again, to our partners who are providing this statistical information. It gives confidence to members of the public who are looking at this information to ensure that it is consistent with the high standards of privacy that we have set as a government for our citizens, and I think that this is an improvement. It is one of those improvements that is so important to our legislative process, working to research each clause of the bill and understand how to make those clauses better.
I do not agree with the Minister's concerns, and quite frankly, I don't understand them. We haven't received any submissions from Indigenous governments that inform that position, and we haven't been presented with any of that evidence, either. This does appear to be best practice for the North and best practice to ensure that ownership, copyright, and rights to use information are properly protected, because we don't want the government running roughshod over those rights and for people entering into these agreements not to be able to exercise those rights and have confidence that those issues with going to be addressed. That is why this motion is in important and will greatly improve this piece of legislation.
Mr. Chair, I would like to ask for a recorded vote. Thank you.
