There is one other matter. Again, it was in the same minutes and related to the suspension of the committee. I am not asking for any decision or discussion now but the Chairman might give some consideration to the committee continuing. It continues if the Senators leave so it should continue if Deputies leave or there could be a pairing arrangement. There might be instances where you could not continue it because of the nature of the topic but there are times when we could continue and the Chairman should look at that because it is a bit discourteous to people who attend the meetings at their own time and expense to have to wait around for half an hour while votes are taking place.
