I'm very reluctant to speak out, but I believe I have no choice but to do so.
I made a comment a few minutes ago asking that we focus on the key issues. Mr. Zuberi is proposing that we have one meeting and Mr. Genuis's proposal would bring the number of additional meetings to three.
I don't have a problem with that, but we have to be aware that this committee has an extremely limited number of meetings. We can keep on adding meetings at our leisure like that, but we must bear in mind that certain topics, whether it's the situation in Armenia, Haiti or Ukraine, are going to be left out.
I'm very sensitive to the tragedy that the Pakistani people are facing, and I certainly don't want to sound like I'm saying that it should be minimized and given as little importance as possible. However, I do want people to be aware that we can only have a limited number of meetings, and therefore, when you add meetings with each motion, like they tried to do just now on the turbine issue, at the end of the day, issues of importance are going to have to be overlooked.
I know Mr. Zuberi is delighted to see a colleague suggest that we add two meetings, but Mr. Zuberi originally proposed only one, so I would move that we stick to one meeting.
