In terms of my concerns around the timing, I voiced them at the last meeting. The committee and the chair are certainly aware of that.
I agree. I thought I made the case at the time for additional time, but in light of the fact that we have witnesses today, I think we're going to have to bring this to a head. I'd like to offer some kind of compromise here anyway, if I could. I will throw this out.
There are just two things. We have witnesses coming after the deadline for putting forward amendments. Even if we could put off the clause-by-clause to the following week, if we could fill that.... Right now, the group of four witnesses is coming after the deadline, so they'll have no impact on any of the amendments. If we could put the clause-by-clause off to the following week.... I'm going to offer that. The other thing is with regard to the calling of officials. I'll do this in a different motion, but if I could, I'll throw that out to the committee anyway.
