Mr. Gerry Smyth:

The point is that this legislation is now imposing an obligation on the commissioners to publish their decisions, to give written determinations and to publish them. If that happens, I think the problem to which Senator Hayden has alluded will go away. In all the debate about transparency, it is important not to lose sight of the fact that there are a lot of other ways of trying to address the problems in the system, such as delays and the lack of written decisions. We should not just concentrate on the transparency issue - these other things are also quite important.
