I have listened very carefully to the arguments that have been put forward by Senator McLucas and Senator Allison, and some fairly extreme statements have been made. Just addressing the last point that was made by Senator McLucas on size, I ask: how often would Senator McLucas, Senator Allison or anybody else within this place have sat around considering the operations of a committee, whether it be a political committee or a non-political committee, and exclaimed in total frustration that the best committee is a committee of one?
