Mr. Speaker, I recognize the Member is concerned about the inquiry which has been initiated with respect to a physician who is her constituent. Mr. Speaker, Dr. Covert has stepped aside from sitting on this particular inquiry. He will have no involvement in the matter which is of concern to the Member. He has, therefore, for reasons he outlined in the House, taken away any cause for concern or criticism or the appearance of bias on the part of the honourable Member. So, Mr. Speaker, with the greatest of respect to the honourable Member, the problem has been solved. Dr. Covert has stepped aside from this hearing and I do not know what the Member is asking me to justify. It has been fixed up, I would have thought, to the Member's satisfaction. Thank you.
