Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Harris has proposed a good solution. Despite being new to this committee and a new member of Parliament, he has found a solution that incorporates everything we discussed before.
First off, all the Conservatives get to participate. Giving all the Conservative members an opportunity to speak is a principle we support.
Second, the Liberals have twice as much speaking time than their numbers would warrant. That is a principle the committee has always adhered to in the past.
Third, it is consistent with a principle that is very important to us, that the official opposition be able to ask the first questions. In the first round, we start, and in the following rounds, the Conservatives start. I think that is a balanced approach.
I want to commend my colleague because I think his proposal takes into account everything we had previously discussed here. I hope there is unanimous consent for his proposal.
