Fair enough. Let me make another point.
You mentioned the Speaker's ruling in the case that Mr. Hiebert cited, which was that if the committee were to study and prepare a report and then submit it to the House, the Speaker would rule at that time on whether or not that report could be submitted to the House. It seems to me that it would be a gross waste of taxpayers' dollars for this or any other committee to do a report that may not be admissible to the House, and therefore we should seek the ruling of the Speaker now and get the benefit of the legal officer of Parliament before we embark on spending any taxpayer dollars.
