They get a report written by some consulting firm instead of hearing the views directly from those affected in the industry. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"395034\" data-originallang=\"en\">My question is, what is the process from here in terms of getting to potential proposed changes to the act, if you know, David?</p>",

Ils re\u00e7oivent un rapport r\u00e9dig\u00e9 par une firme, plut\u00f4t que d'entendre directement les points de vue des intervenants de l'industrie.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"395034\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'aimerais savoir ce qui va se produire \u00e0 compter de maintenant pour en arriver \u00e0 de possibles changements \u00e0 la loi; si vous le savez, David.</p>"
