Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I think Dean has basically made the point. I think we've all sat at committees—not that I want to hear more Conservatives speak, to be honest—but the fact of the matter is that you do go to committees where sometimes, especially when witnesses' time is broken into an hour apiece, some members of the committee, and it's usually on the government side, never get a chance to raise their voice.
What this really does is this. If there's a single member of the NDP at the committee, that committee member will have 12 minutes to speak, while the majority on the committee will have only five minutes. I don't think that's proper balance. The makeup of Parliament is the way it is, and I think every committee member, if at all possible, should be given the opportunity, if they wish, to raise questions and speak with witnesses.
So I would be opposed.
