If I may just raise another point of order about timing, I think it's fair to say that we do have very important committee business. I think the member has certainly put the matter on the record, and I think it's now important that we move forward to either discussion of the motion or to a vote. I don't think it's appropriate for the entire committee and the minister and his entire staff to be here while we have the entire proposed business of the committee being brought forward by our colleague. I do submit that it's important to limit the discussion on this, and whether we go to an actual debate or to a vote, that should be done expeditiously as opposed to taking an indefinite period of time.
