The Liberals believe. a special. commission must be established _ rather than using the national assembly’ 's existing parliamentary commission — to give it the greatest possible freedom in carrying out the investigation, Gratton said. By using a special commission: Speaker Richard Guay, ~ who presides over the existing parliamentary commission, could be called ‘to testify and answer questions from members of the national assembly.
