I have two points.
Our motion asked the government not to ratify until this committee has had an additional 21 sitting days. That doesn't necessarily mean that the day after the 21 sitting days expire the government would go ahead and ratify. It just means they can't do it before then. They certainly can do it at a time later than that.
But I find this discussion curious, because the whole discussion at the steering committee was based on the fact that Mr. Byrne had asked for an additional two days at least, so that he could bring in the seven witnesses that he had outlined for us. That was the instruction that Mr. MacAulay was going on and we as a steering committee agreed to do, with the possibility of an additional one of our own.
If he doesn't want all seven witnesses, if he wants to cut that back, we're open to considering that as well.
