Mr. Speaker, as we wrap up debate on this motion I would like to thank all members for their interventions.
I confirm that the intent of the motion is not to open up closed door hearings completely and not to disclose confidences of witnesses and parties to hearings. It is not to embarrass anyone. It is to facilitate the work which we all do as MPs from time to time. It is to ensure that in the future our legislation is sensitive to and cognizant of the need of members of Parliament to have access to these tribunals, to view them in operation, to see the appointees do their work and to ensure that there is fairness and efficacy in our federal system of government.
