Madame Jennings, I want to correct you on a couple of points.
First of all, I did not state that, notwithstanding the rules, I intended to break the rules by voting. I made no such statement, and I encourage you to re-examine what was stated on the record—it was of course a public meeting. Just as you were incorrect in thinking the previous procedure and House affairs meeting had been public, you are also incorrect, Madame Jennings, in asserting that I intended to break the rules.
Now, with regard to voting, I will just state that there was another meeting where you made another assertion that was also incorrect, which was that other subcommittees, in which chairs had indicated they would be voting, had passed rules permitting the chairs of the subcommittees to vote.
