Mr. Chairman, is it appropriate for me to come back to some of the questioning of a preceding meeting and the perhaps inadvertent casting of aspersions on an individual who wasn't here and is not being called? I think we should be very careful. You had to admonish us, Mr. Chairman, and I accepted the admonition.
When Mr. Warkentin was questioning someone, he could have been insinuating that a certain member of the board of the court challenges program might have been in conflict. In the testimony, there was reference made to the fact that there is a conflict of interest guideline in the bylaw. I've obtained it, and I'm sure everybody else could.
Mr. Chairman, we should be very careful about this, and if we're to carry on, I think we should be giving the people we're appointing an opportunity to come and be heard at this committee.
