I am kind of combining this in two questions.
With all due regard and congratulations to the member of the Bloc who is present here, this follows through to the definition and making clear the other motions here too. When we're talking about members of the opposition parties, are we talking about the recognized opposition parties? Furthermore, I'd like to have it clarified in the rules here that when we have people sitting in on these committee meetings...are the rules to allow any members from the non-recognized opposition parties, the Green Party or the Bloc party, to be in attendance at these meetings?
Some of these meetings are in camera. Some of these meetings have witnesses who are appearing here. With all due respect to the Bloc Québécois member here, what are the rules and understanding for this?
