I forgot to say something. My colleague Ms. DeBellefeuille spoke to me about Question Period and speeches in the House, about the fact that we use political parties for our own personal benefit and the fact that the media do likewise. There is one specific provision that makes this all possible. Someone working for the House broadcasting service explained to me that the networks tap in to a specific feed. We're aware of the situation. Regardless, the purpose of the study is to determine if this authority can be extended to committees.
