Mr. Chair, I just want to be clear...certainly on my conversation with Mr. Lake.
All I basically said was that in the committees that I have been a part of in the past, whether it's been heritage, whether it's been environment, there's been no steering committee. That's up to the committee to decide. I said I liked that practice because it's aired before all the committee members, and they decide how they want to deal with things. It has been, I guess, the custom of this committee for the last year that there's a steering committee. I'm not saying I object to that. I also said if they want to continue that way, it's fine. We didn't want to change that particular composition.
I have my personal preference, but this is a new motion, a new discussion, and I haven't really had an opportunity to discuss it with my colleagues. I'd like to hear what other members of this committee have to say on that also, whether they are in agreement with it or not. Certainly, as a new member I don't want to impose myself in such a way that the other members may see it as a problem.
I don't know, so I'd like to hear what the other members have to say on this one.
