- Summary:

Currently the Act excludes members (including ministers) from being summoned as witnesses ... the proposal to allow ministers to be summoned raises complex constitutional issues pertaining to two key conventions in our system of government: the accountability of ministers to Parliament and comity - often expressed as the right of each House to control its own proceedings ..." -- Chair's foreword, page vi.
