How much flexibility do we have in terms of inviting? Say we put out the invitation to the departments and to the first panel, but out of the departments we get the two, and out of the panel we get two. If we set two days, we're going to have two come in for two hours and another two for two hours.
If we end up finding out that we can put them all in the one day, then let's try to do that. I just don't see the need for two hours with DND and the VAC officials.
Similarly, if it ends up that there are two or three vet organizations, in the two hours we can use five witnesses. In other committees we are on we've had six witnesses.
I don't know if that's a fair request to the staff in terms of organizing that or if that's acceptable to everyone for consideration.
