You called a meeting unilaterally, without instruction from or consultation with the members of this committee. That is a fundamental, bedrock principle.
Furthermore, you called this meeting on the main estimates. The deadline to study them is May 31. There is no reason to call this meeting during a constituency week, when we have literally two and a half months to study the mains.
This is a political stunt and theatre, which is part and parcel of where our Conservatives colleagues are taking this to get clips.
