Mr. Bittle, that is not a point of order, I'm sorry.
Ms. Thomas, I would like, though, to comment on the premise that you put forward to this committee that in the past, when the committee has decided to look at a study, and we were able to extend it or not, that was because on all of those studies there was a deadline motion. It was either a minimum of four meetings, or at least four meetings, or a maximum. There was no such thing in this unanimous agreement by this committee with regard to the meetings that were going to held with three meetings of five hours each during the week of May 20.
That has been accomplished. We now need to move on to clause-by-clause. You are setting a deadline for clause-by-clause. Can you speak to that and not to the issue of having more witnesses or not having more witnesses, because then I would have to rule your motion out of order because it would be completely contrary to the original motion on the floor that you're seeking to amend. If you're going to speak to deadlines, please speak to deadlines.
Ms. Thomas.
