Thanks, Chair. I just want to add to what Mr. Kelly was saying. I agree with him. As someone who came from the housing industry, I think what we've seen.... The track record of the Liberal government has been a lot of grand announcements, as Mr. Kelly said, but no follow-through.

The government's making a claim that it's a burden to the CRA. I was wondering if the officials could tell us if it's possible to do this. I don't know how much more work it would take, but could the officials could tell us that? If it's something that could be included, then I think it should be.
First, Mr. Turnbull was not exactly correct in saying that this is already provided.

Is that correct? Would it
Yes, Chair, we'll submit that.
Mr. Lawrence asked the last part. I don't know if we can make a subamendment or make an amendment to this at all. Maybe we can just delete the top part and get (a), (b) and (c) added to the end report. I don't know if that's possible.
C-30 I move that Bill, in clause 2, be amended by adding, after line 2 on page 2, the following: (4) Within six months after the day on which this section comes into force, the Minister of Labour in collaboration with the Minister of Finance must table a report in each House of Parliament, on any of the first fifteen days on which that House is sitting after the report is made, that includes:
