Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
On the one hand, I wanted to remind you that the procedure is the same one we used during the last Parliament and that we never received any reports or complaints from witnesses who might have felt wronged.
On the other hand, it is up to us to assess the witnesses we bring here. I repeat what was said earlier on. If these witnesses are considered to be valid, then we do consider them as such, and if there are expenses to cover, they will be covered, on a reasonable basis; it is clearly indicated.
