You don't disappoint me. It's obviously the absence of the other two people that disappoints me. They may have very good reasons; that's up to them. However, it's still very disappointing because this is an important topic, I think, and we would have hoped to hear from all the people who make the decisions or who will hold positions so that they could answer questions.
Is it customary for Minister Anandasangaree, who was summoned, to be absent and replaced by a deputy minister? In any of the committees I've sat on in the past, I've never seen ministers not show up and send staff instead. I'm wondering if, in his case, this is the norm or if it's actually an exception today.
