Thank you, Mr. Chairman. This is a motion of the committee of the whole. It is really a motion asking the Minister to respond to it. There are all kinds of things we do in the Assembly where you are allowed so much time to respond, 120 days for this and so many days for that. So it is part of our system where you make motions, table reports and give responses. If we want to have a full debate about the issue that Mr. Pollard is raising, it would be a debate in the formal session as to whether people should be required to come up with the solutions in the way the motion is suggesting. I think the motion says that there are many reports. It is part of our system whereby we make reports and the government does the best it can to respond to the wishes of Members. If the Minister is not able to do it, or can do it only partially, then he can do so and give his reasons. But if you want to have a full debate on the accountability of Ministers, it isn't to be done in committee of the whole.
This is all about accountability. If you want to have a debate on it, it shouldn't be in committee of the whole, it should be in formal session, if you want to talk about accountability. So why don't we just support the motion and give the Minister a chance to give his arguments in the way we normally do. Then take it from there. This has been blown out of all proportion as to what the intent is. We are not talking about whether the Minister has been accountable or not. But if he says, I cannot do this, then it will come to a debate on accountability. We shouldn't allow it to go that far. I will support the motion and let the Minister do what he can in responding to it.
