The Chairman is speaking about bringing witnesses before the committee. How many will we have? We must remember that there are restrictions. I know we, as Deputies and Senators, can cross county borders because it is necessary for us to do so but we must ask who we are bringing in and from where we are bringing them. This is important. We are telling everyone to be careful of what they are doing and stay within their boundaries. We must be very careful about what we do. I was a member of the Covid-19 committee and we had witnesses in the building. I do not know what way things will go now. The Chairman might check that. It is important that we are very careful in what we do. We have to find a balance.
