Mr. Speaker, I understand the point raised by the hon. whip from the Reform Party. It is of course the intention of everyone to make this subcommittee work as efficiently and appropriately as possible. I believe the committee even left empty spots to ensure members who could not be heard during the first round would have room deliberately made for them for a quick second report so that all members who have private members' items that should be made votable are made votable at the earliest opportunity.
In the House of Commons on March 15th, 1996. See this statement in context.
