This seems to us to be a basic issue about political accountability. The issue of tax havens is important enough to take several sessions of study, by several meetings by this committee. It has captured certainly the attention of the public because of some high-profile cases where whistle-blowers have come forward. It is an issue that is topical and timely, and it is an absolutely valid, fair, and logical question.
How will the minister, not the bureaucrats but the minister, square the circle of reducing 3,000 full-time equivalents in CRA while at the same time beefing up enforcement to crack down on tax havens? I think it's a logical question. I would think the minister would be coming forward voluntarily, would be rushing to the finance committee, to explain that to us and to Canadians.
