Okay. Maybe I'll just make a comment and then come back to questions after.
I know that in 2003, the procedure and House affairs committee undertook a study on e-petitions. I wasn't a member of Parliament; that preceded me by about one year. My colleague Mr. Reid might have been part of that committee.
I know that they concurred in their report; however, members of the procedure and House affairs committee still had a number of concerns at that time, and therefore, nothing really was done beyond concurring in the report. There was no movement. Obviously, we haven't adopted this system to date.
What I'd like to suggest for the benefit of the committee is that we perhaps get a bit of a briefing on what some of the concerns were and maybe try to discern exactly why this didn't move forward, because it is not a new proposal.
