Let the chair clarify the rules. These are questions and comments on the part of members. So the witnesses may not be afforded time to respond to a member's intervention. The member of this committee is fully entitled, as a duly elected member of Parliament, to use his or her time in any way they wish. So if they wish to use the entire five minutes to make a statement, not affording you an opportunity to respond, that's their right as a member of this committee.
Mr. Rodriguez.
