Yes, Mr. Chair, just before we begin I'd like to put on record that we had witnesses here yesterday, and I had to leave at 5:30, but I think the last witness probably testified about 5:45. Some of the witnesses suggested that we make some amendments, but the deadline for submitting amendments was six o'clock, so I don't see how that would have been possible.
I don't want to delay this, but I'm saying in future we should probably think about the steps and the procedures before we continue with clause-by-clause when we have witnesses beforehand, because it's almost impossible to put in amendments after a hearing.
On the record, I'm not too pleased with what happened between calling in the witnesses, the end of hearing witnesses, and then the clause-by-clause.
