I have seen a lot in 13 years, but this is the first time I have seen a request that witnesses manage the committee's work. There is a limit here. It is up to us to manage our work. Next time, I will demand that the list you will be putting forward or that all members will be putting forward to you be studied in camera, that we prepare our work schedule and that we do not leave it up to witnesses to decide whether or not they are going to appear before the committee.
I have never seen such a thing in 13 years; it makes no sense. I am putting that down to your lack of experience, Mr. Chairman; however, next time, I will insist that we work on these matters in camera.
