Mr. Vice-Chair, I think that it is important for us to have a government representative who can answer our questions, so that we can fully deal with the nuclear question. You know as well as I do that this matter is front and centre at the moment. If we only have representatives of private associations, we will not be getting the complete nuclear picture. Sir, I would really like you to consult the other members of the committee to know if they would agree to hearing from representatives of Atomic Energy of Canada or other government representatives. If I had known, I would have insisted that the government representative provide me with an answer when he refused to do so on Monday.
