I wonder if my colleague would provide his thoughts with regard to how this proposed legislation would ensure more transparency and accountability when it comes to electoral reform.</p>",

Je me demande si mon coll\u00e8gue pourrait expliquer en quoi la mesure propos\u00e9e permettrait d'accro\u00eetre la transparence et la reddition de comptes en mati\u00e8re de r\u00e9forme \u00e9lectorale.</p>"
