I guess I'm a bit concerned because we don't know what we don't know as committee members. By that I mean I don't know how many briefs are outstanding. We have submitted our amendments. Obviously, that's on behalf of the Conservative Party. I have to ensure that His Majesty's loyal opposition is properly represented.
We know of at least two that are outstanding, and we wouldn't know about this if we were not having this meeting. It seems to me that the appropriate remedy should be to reopen the deadline for amendments. I'm not going to give away our work product, as a lawyer, but I will say that my staff, who have done an excellent job, go through these briefs; they do review them. They do look at amendments, and they do cross-reference them to the point where—I'm not telling tales out of school—there are 70 amendments we've looked at.
Mr. Chair, this is a problem, and I'm not sure how we deal with it. With the greatest of respect—and I'm not trying to throw anybody under the bus—if there are not enough resources for translation, and the government wants to have its legislative agenda passed, then you can't exactly have your cake and eat it too by saying, “Get this done, but we're not going to allocate the resources to get the translation done.”
I will resume my six minutes, if there's anything left. I'm not sure if the clerk can tell us this. What briefs are currently in that translation line, if you will? Does that make sense? What don't we have that has been submitted?
