Thank you, Mr. Chair.
In terms of the wording of Mrs. Shanahan's motion, I see a problem more specifically with point (a), which is to set a deadline to have a final witness list.
First of all, who sets the deadline? I'd like Mrs. Shanahan to explain that further.
Second, does that mean that once the deadline has passed, witnesses can no longer be added to the study? I think that would be problematic because it's as a study progresses that you can determine who the relevant witnesses are. That's the case in this study on ArriveCAN. The more stones that are turned over, the clearer it becomes that new and worthwhile elements can be added to the study.
Basically, I understand the idea of wanting to know in a more predictable way what we're going to do in committee. However, tying our hands at the beginning of a study isn't a good idea. The committee must be able to have a minimum amount of flexibility.
