The Chair Conservative Rob Anders

There have been a lot of great suggestions to add to the list. At this stage we're over our time and we're losing committee members like flies. I'm going to suggest we wrap it up and resume on Thursday.

When we come back in January, will we be starting over from scratch?

I wouldn't think so. There's no prorogation intended as far as I know.
