I was just wondering, Madam Chair.... I'll refer you to that particular page, if I may: “Committee members are usually given priority in the questioning of witnesses” over the chair. Is that, indeed, the normal course of the business in this?
I'm just asking because the allocation for witnesses is obviously.... Mr. Brown, for instance, hasn't asked a question in a month. And quite frankly, the questioning you had was, in my mind, more than ten minutes in length; I can check that out in the blues. Just your interference between each segment of the questioning.... It seems to me that your role as chair is taking up quite a bit of the time of the committee.
