The point of order is where we are at this point in time.
Colleagues, obviously we have a witness who volunteered. He has not been instructed for us as a committee to hear from him, and committee members have not called this member.
Really, at this point, effectively, the House leader has volunteered to be here, and now I need to hear if in fact it is the committee's will to hear from Mr. Rodriguez.
Mr. Rodriguez was not invited by this committee. He was not instructed by the House of Commons to be here. I guess it is my duty as the chair to recognize whether there is a will of the committee to hear from this witness who has not been asked to be here.
Mr. Dong.
