No, no....
If I may, Mr. Walsh, the Extradition Act is probably silent on what the justice minister's responsibilities, authority, and rights and privileges are. However, the real question is this: what is his responsibility as justice minister vis-à-vis an order of Parliament, which we have issued?
Basically we have the authority to ask. He's saying he hasn't got the authority to vary and yet, in fact, the surrender order under which Mr. Schrieber is currently being held is signed by the Minister of Justice and can be only changed by the Minister of Justice. It's prima facie. There's no question he can, in my opinion, vary his order. It has nothing to do with the Extradition Act.
The committee is going to have to instruct me or, in a report to the House, instruct the parliamentary counsel, the law clerk, to give us the layout, but given the velocity of events here....
Now on the Speaker's warrant, could we leave that until we have Mr. Martin--
