On a point of order, Madam Chair, I was one of the people who gave a thumbs-up because I assumed that the minister would be in the position to respond to whatever questions were put. He was not in a position to do so, and neither were his officials here. None of them could respond to any of my questions on the commission's spending, nor did they say they were able to discuss anything with respect to the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal. That is fine, but it definitely changes my support for our going ahead with a vote before we have the information we need.
