On the government responses, I agree with Mr. Stanton. Also, Madame Demers in her lists is quite right.
These are government positions, political positions. I've seen these things before. It seems to me that the ministers, who have to sign off on those responses because they are political responses, should be the ones coming. Even the parliamentary secretaries are limited in what they will be allowed to say or not say. The minister has much more latitude. At the end of the day, he or she is the one who signs off on the response and gives direction to the system as to how to respond and how to word it.
I would think that on this government response one, we need to have the ministers come. I would hope that we'd agree to that.
I hope the ministers make themselves available as soon as they can, because I think this is very important work. We certainly should send the letters out immediately to them and get on with it.
