Therefore, at last December's meeting, I asked the Speaker and the Clerk a question about the opening of the restaurant, Le Parlementaire. We agreed to some extent that because of the hallways and its location on the sixth floor, it would be difficult to open the restaurant to the general public during the summer or the long holiday break.
The situation is quite different at the National Assembly because you access it through a door and then go up a staircase. It is easy to channel traffic. I understand the situation but the fact remains that you seem willing to try to open Le Parlementaire during constituency weeks, at least to our staff who does not have the opportunity to go there.
As a result of my training as a lawyer, I know that when you ask a witness a question, you always know the answer. Did you try to open it?
