Just to get this on the record, Mr. Chair, we're in favour of seeing this become a full office of Parliament. However, given the process that we have and given the large amount of amendments that are going to be necessary, we do think it would be in the best interests of everyone to pull back to form a special committee or to perhaps have a joint session of two different committees of both houses and then introduce it as a first reading so that the committee can actually get into making amendments as are necessary before we have second reading.
The reason, Mr. Chair, on that point though is that we want to see the institution become a full office, but we also want to make sure there's proper independence and that we've had the discussion with the international community, we've had the discussion with all parliamentarians, before moving forward.
