Mr. Milner was requested to come some time ago and was able to come today. We thought, “Isn't it lucky”—he may not think so now—“and fortuitous to the committee that he is able to be here.” He is a Canadian expert on the compact, is involved in it, and has already been scheduled.
Frankly, no other witnesses had been submitted—witnesses have now been submitted and officials have been requested—and that is why we are doing this.
The reality, just to remind the committee, is that you put a deadline of December 10 for us to accomplish this task. For us to get this task done, it is my job as the chair to make sure we have four meetings on this topic. That's how we're doing it.
