I noticed the parliamentary secretary wants to ask questions of officials. However, I think she can ask for those things at other times as well. This is a chance for parliamentarians who do not have access to officials on a regular basis to be able to ask questions.
Rather than hold up meetings and cancel schedules, we've tried, especially on the opposition, to work with the government on the scheduling of the BIA. We've been very co-operative thus far. I would hope you would attest to that, Mr. Chair.
