This would simply ensure that every member of this committee gets a chance to ask a question before a non-member gets to ask a question. I'd hate to see one or more of us cut out of an opportunity to speak. I know it was raised the time Ms. May was here. She was actually ceded her time by one of the Liberal members of the committee, but even that.... Out of courtesy, wouldn't we want to cede our time to another member of this committee rather than to someone who is not a member of this committee?
