Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I am pleased to see you and all my colleagues again. I hope everyone had a nice summer.
With respect to this motion, it may be wise to address it now or we could table it until a bit later.
Our principal preoccupation with this motion is that it seems somewhat premature as we don't know which witnesses will be arriving or what the testimony of those witnesses will be. We do have some concerns. The analysts have done a lot of work. A lot of names have been suggested by the analysts and by the various parties. It might be wise and more prudent to vet those lists and cull them to reduce the number to something more manageable before we entertain motions such as this about submitting briefs.
I will leave my submission there.
Merci.
