Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
And welcome, Adam, for being here today.
I'd like to have a little chat about the accountability guide for ministers.
It is exactly that, a guide. “Maybe I'll follow it, maybe I won't follow it.” There are really no teeth to it. I find it quite amusing when I read the guide and it says that ministers must answer all questions to the best of their ability in the House of Commons. We don't see them following that rule. Very often they get up and speak on their talking points.
Is there anything else in the guide that we should take out of the guide and put right into legislation?
