    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, with due respect to the Majority Leader, in committees we listen to Cabinet Secretaries and stakeholders. There is no time on the Floor of this House when a Committee has been asked to produce a letter from a Cabinet Secretary stating their position. What we have had here is a report of the committees. What is tabled is the report and recommendations. At no time have we demanded that a Committee Member moving amendments comes with a letter from a Cabinet Secretary. The Majority Leader is applying double standards. At some point when it favours him, it is ok and when it does not, he produces a letter. We have to know as Committees whether when we have amendments we have to bring letters from Cabinets Secretaries showing that those changes have been made. I respect the Majority Leader but on this one, I think the day has been long and the double standards are starting to set in. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
