Ms. Nash, my colleague and I will agree to a study of the commission's activities, to have someone come in—I believe they have appointed an executive director—and that we do that in good faith. However, we are not in favour of having the Minister responsible, the Prime Minister, appear before the committee. If you correct your motion to have us undertake a study, we will have no objection, but having the Prime Minister come... If you remove that part of the motion, there will be no problem; if not, we will be voting against the motion.
