In regard to the second question, Mr. Julian, you will find that in accordance with the Standing Orders of the House of Commons, in terms of legislation the only thing the committee can report back is the bill. There is no dissenting opinion on a piece of legislation. You would have the same thing on main estimates.
That's why you have the Standing Orders there, just to respect the rules of the House of Commons. Dissenting opinions are on the substantive reports. I use the word substantive not in quantity but more in terms of quality. It could be one page, and you are entitled to have a dissenting opinion if the committee agrees to it. That's why you have conditions. Some committees choose conditions. There have been cases in the past of dissenting opinions being longer than the report, or where language, perhaps, did not meet the satisfaction of the members as well.
So the committee has a right to impose conditions on the report—that the language be parliamentary protocol, that it be 10 pages, that it be submitted to the clerk within a reasonable time, that it doesn't delay the production of the report.
These are the types of conditions we would look at—well, if there's no more debate.
