"content": "Indeed, Mr. Speaker, Sir, I very firmly say yes, it does. I will give you the reason why. As you know, there is a principle we call resue de carta . Resue de carta is when two parties come to court, present the two sides and the court resolves the issue on merit. The principles of resue de carta come into play. Neither party is allowed to come back to the court to present a similar claim. To put a rhetorical question: Is this House founded on the House of Commons traditions? It is, actually, a court and has always been a court. So, the question is: Can this House say that it, in fact, heard the case that was presented by the Committee on merit? If the answer is \"yes\" or \"no\", can the House say that it has heard all the facts, and all the evidence that is in the public domain? Has it reviewed all the arguments from both sides? I say \"no\", for the simple reason that we do not rely on newspapers or the radio. It would be quite clear the issues which have been addressed by this Committee have never been addressed by this House. Therefore, I say with certainty, that this House has never visited these issues."
