Greg McLean Conservative
“I agree that the government measurement agency has too much red tape and needs to work faster. Parliament focuses on laws, so a committee should take a closer look at the minister's power to make rules.”
“Mr. Speaker, I agree with my colleague on the first question, namely whether there is too much red tape in the Measurement Canada process for our colleague’s constituents. Yes, we need to be more efficient in resolving the situation. Regarding the second question, which touched on the minister’s regulatory powers, I believe Parliament is more focused on legislation. Perhaps this aspect will be explored in greater detail by the Standing Committee on Industry and Technology, which is due to examine this matter.”
