I appreciate the point that was just made, but I think having these positions be part-time or even having the possibility of their being part-time shows a lack of seriousness with regard to the review process and wanting to undertake it properly. I find it difficult to imagine that someone on this kind of body would be involved with other work or doing other things or only part-time. If we really want to take seriously the kind of accountability that's being sought with the agency, then I think it should not be a part-time position. Therefore, I support the amendment.
