Not in a committee setting. So this is very much out of the norm. You've provided an explanation of why you did it.
Again, my opinion is that I support it. It was ten to zero. There was unanimous support to have a balanced approach, and the sherpa was a major part of that. I don't want to waste time reading it into the record again: your testimony was very clear. The sherpa was part of it, and it was going to be a one-day thing. So what you proposed was a Tuesday meeting with the sherpa in the first hour and with the other group in the second hour of the meeting.
That was at your discretion. It's very clear in the policy guide. And I've read that. I don't need to read that again. It's very clear that it's within your authority, along with the clerk's, and that decision was made.
So you've got a motion. We don't see this happening--that a committee would be asking for a motion. In the introduction of that motion, there were comments made that indicated that you were being manipulated by the PMO, which, again, was quite inappropriate.
I think there's been some backpedalling on that position, but clearly I think you've provided an explanation, and I think the appropriate measure is to remove this motion. I would ask the mover to remove this motion. You've shared that you're considering it a confidence motion--the appropriate measure--and I'd ask, through you, that Mr. McGuinty remove this motion.
