I was very well compensated, thank you.

This is to ensure the privacy of the discussions of the commission. It is an important amendment. I regret very much that Senator McDowell is not able to be here today but I am sure he will make a very full and complete point when it comes forward on Report Stage. I say "full". Many people in this House say "fulsome". That is a completely incorrect use of the word "fulsome". "Fulsome" is a nasty word and implies very negative things about the process described as being fulsome. I am saying a "full" explanation.
