Yes, Mr. Long. I understand that.
I have given all parties latitude to say their piece when they interrupt on a point of order, and that's been the tradition on this committee. It's not to carry it on but to have it heard, and then obviously I give direction afterward if it's a legitimate point of order.
However, you raise a substantive issue, and we should try to keep our points of order to procedure and not debate.
We will continue with Madam Lattanzio.
