I appreciate your sentiment, Mr. Turnbull. I did speak to the witnesses prior to the beginning of the meeting and subsequently once we began. Although I am sympathetic, there could be a change in the direction. We have so few meetings to deal with this legislation that I'm not prepared to let them go at the moment.
Witnesses, I apologize, but I am going to ask you to stay in the event that we do move forward with clause-by-clause.
Thank you, Mr. Turnbull.
