Mr. Chairman, I realize the challenge you and the clerk have in order to give the witnesses some adequate time to present their cases and the parliamentarians adequate time to hear them. But if you've got that many witnesses, it doesn't matter if you have three or if you have three hundred, you still can't give them more than 20 minutes to present. Otherwise, there is no time left for questions. So I don't know why it needs any further discussion, and it's the chair's decision, really.
