The committee
recommends that the government take steps to ensure that explanatory memoranda
provide members of parliament with the information necessary to be able to make
informed decisions about the legislation before them. For instance, it suggests
that the Legislation Handbook be worded more forcefully to alert those
preparing the documentation to the importance and function of an explanatory
memorandum. It also suggests that the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet
monitor and report on the standard of memoranda.
