It seems to me we're getting down here to splitting hairs. If the presenter of the bill gets 30 minutes to present the bill, we don't ask questions. Hopefully, then, we could all agree that she's not a witness, that she will not be part of the witness list. She just simply presents her bill. I don't know why we want to beat this thing to death. I thought Ms. Mourani's motion was pretty clear. Surely the committee would expect the presenter of the bill to make a presentation. If we don't want to ask questions, then I think my colleague from the Liberal Party has come up with what should be deemed a fairly reasonable thing. We give her half an hour. We don't ask questions; she's not a witness on our witness list.
