I do not know whether I have time to ask my question and get an answer.
I would like to ask you about the estimates. I am a newcomer, and I am not familiar with all the nuances of parliamentary procedure. However, I know that I am sitting opposite the undisputed authority on parliamentary procedure.
Firstly, I understand that there are no estimates for private members' bills. There are, however, estimates for government bills, including Bill C-2. If I understand you correctly, you are suggesting that we should turn our attention to the cost of implementing Bill C-2, and ask somebody to help the committee prepare the budgetary estimates. You are suggesting that this person should be the Parliamentary Budget Officer.
I need some clarification, and I think you see what it is that I am not understanding.
