If we had a raft of department officials here.... There was an opportunity to ask questions, and I would think that if there are further questions one wants to put to a particular person or to the minister, that's fine, but I don't think that, as a minimum, we should get all of the people back. I don't see the utility in that.
Secondly, dealing with the specific comments relating to the motion, we have Mr. Karygiannis indicating something that the RCMP may have indicated to him. If he's interested in putting that before the committee, then we should be calling somebody from the RCMP who would specifically contradict the comments, but not call the witness back because of a phone call Mr. Karygiannis may have made. I don't think it's appropriate to call that witness back on that specific purpose, in that regard.
Then with respect to the number of cases being held pending the Taylor appeal, the fact is that the witness was clear that there were some cases pending, in terms of decision-making, on the basis that the appeal from Taylor was not in. How many numbers we have there isn't a particular issue. If he wants to pursue that with the minister when she's here, that's fair enough, but I don't think it's worthwhile for us to call all these people back, or even the two particular people, for that small, narrow reason.
First of all, if you want to call at least Rosemarie Redden, I think you would first call somebody from the RCMP or put something before this committee to show specifically that this would be contradicted.
I would be opposed to the motion for those reasons.
