You are absolutely right, Mr. Bellavance: the subcommittee will report to the main committee. Subcommittees cannot report directly to the House. That is a basic principle. The House creates committees and that is why committees report to the House. A subcommittee must report to the main committee. The only way it could act otherwise would be if everyone agreed or if the House made an order to that effect.
