“Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for her contribution to this important debate. Yesterday, there was a lot of discussion about creating regions of national interest. One of the government’s responses is that there are a dozen laws and seven regulations, that authorizations are deemed to have been granted in those regions, and that a regional assessment will take place. If we dig a little deeper, we see that this regional assessment process already exists, but it is really not the same kind of thing as an impact assessment. Can my colleague tell me, before the regions of national interest are defined, what the regional assessment will cover? Will an analysis be done for each of the laws that will then be set aside?”

Mr. Speaker, Claims · 117 wordschoosing a region does not necessarily mean changing all the laws that apply to it.The important thing in choosing a region is to truly recognize that there is a critical activity in the sector and that all departments must work together.The purpose of this bill is really to have one submission, one project and one decision in one year.1We do not want to duplicate the various decisions.We really want things to be as efficient as possible in a given geographic area.Furthermore, it will not necessarily work on a project-by-project basis.When an area is identified, it really means that a number of projects are related and that they must be considered together.
