Chair, congratulations.
I have not canvassed our members on this issue, but I believe there was a time, certainly when I was on this committee, when there was a steering committee. That's not to take away from the advice and input of various members.
We note the presence of Mr. Arthur, who is an independent member. As an independent, he may not be able to sit on a steering committee.
I am of two minds. I think we should maybe have a steering committee that would bring various circumstances and situations to the committee's attention, instead of having a larger committee.
I would suggest it might be better for us to go the route of a steering committee for now. Considering the probability that Mr. Arthur might not be allowed any input—I'm not sure what mechanism is available to him—the steering committee could be modified to allow him to sit on that committee in this case.
