Mr. Chair, nowhere in the proposed agenda do we see that the minister will be coming in front of this committee to tell us where he sees the department going, what changes he wants, and certainly what changes are being trial-ballooned for citizenship.
It's nice to go to the press and be able to throw something out there. I'm just wondering, since the parliamentary secretary is here, whether he would undertake to ask the minister to come to our committee. I'm sure all the members of the committee would certainly agree that getting the minister here would be, not only for this issue, but for other issues, a welcome exercise. I'm just wondering if the parliamentary secretary would agree to undertake that on behalf of our committee.
