Thank you, Madam Chair.
I won't belabour the point, because Mr. Garrison just said it so well, but it's extremely embarrassing to have.... I think there have been more witnesses unable to take part, and we've invited them to take part in this meeting. We've provided them with the equipment to do so, and then, when it comes time for the meeting, they're unable to take part. There has to be a better way than doing this in real time, potentially embarrassing the witnesses and, in my opinion, embarrassing ourselves.
I don't want to miss the opportunity to say that I agree100% with what Mr. Garrison has said. Rather than waiting until the next meeting, I think we need to put our heads together in a subcommittee meeting and find out why this is happening and how we make it better. Do we have to have an appeal to the House leadership? Is it a resource issue? We can't continue on like this.
Thank you, Madam Chair.
