Mr. Chair, it's not normal practice during a study that we arbitrarily assign 30 minutes or a portion of that time immediately after having witnesses. The purpose of the witnesses' appearing is that we can ask pertinent questions of those witnesses regarding their testimony and the topic at hand. It would be out of the ordinary to hear from witnesses and not have an opportunity to put questions to them.
Again, I put it forward as a motion that I hope the committee will adopt.
