I would like to come back to what I was saying earlier about how this contradicts the report passed by the Committee before the end of the last parliamentary session. I would like to put a question to the Clerk in that regard. I am wondering whether Mr. Storseth's motion is actually in order. Decisions made by the House must be in keeping with what is decided in committee. The first recommendation of the report which was tabled in the House of Commons calls for a fully transparent public inquiry.
Once a report such as this has been tabled in the House of Commons, can the very same Agriculture Committee then turn around and say exactly the opposite?
In my opinion, this motion should be declared out of order, because the Committee already decided to call for a public inquiry. How can we now come along and say that there should not be one?
