In short, Mr. Chairman, we have discussed it sufficiently and we are ready to make a well-informed decision.
I would just like to conclude by adding a brief argument that I forgot to raise earlier. If we accept to hear witnesses, we no longer need a Subcommittee on Private Members' Business. It has done a marvellous job and we, of the Standing Committee on Procedure and House Affairs, are here to accept or reject its recommendations.
If we heard witnesses, and especially the law clerk of the House, we would no longer need the subcommittee. All the important issues regarding bills would be debated here, at the steering committee. This argues against the very existence of the Subcommittee on Private Members' Business.
Mr. Chairman, I request that we call a division right away.
