Mr. Speaker, I was not aware that there was going to be a motion moved yesterday setting up this new committee of public accounts. I know, through oversights on the government's side, I was not included on the membership of the committee of public accounts, an oversight because I am one of the few Liberals who was on public accounts when the Groupaction affair occurred and, of course I have intimate knowledge of the background of the case that is going before public accounts.
Therefore I would seek the unanimous consent of the House to be added to the committee as a member of standing.
