Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Obviously, the commissioner can explain the rules to any parliamentarian who asks. The commissioner will not give his blessing, agree with or share his opinion on any specific case, but he is prepared to explain the rules. Then it will be up to the member in question to make up their own mind. However, to do so, the member would have had to provide a lot of confidential information, as Ms. Damoff just said. Confidentiality is precisely what allows trust to exist. We have to trust in the system in question.
As far as I'm concerned, I certainly won't be supporting Mr. Barrett's motion, because I find it absolutely disproportionate to what we need to accomplish here. I invite my colleagues to take the same position. Our job, and that of the commissioner, is to preserve trust in the system. Setting a precedent like this would be crazy.
