Mr. Chair, I would like to echo what Ms. Bendayan just said.
I fully agree with the proposal put forward by Mr. Chong. However, I believe that there are also other situations that are extremely concerning. I am thinking in particular of Haiti and Ethiopia. It will be up to us to decide whether we want a briefing on these other situations of concern from the Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development. This is a formula that we have used in the past. After that, we can decide to go further, if necessary. I think it is important to schedule at least one briefing on the situation in Haiti and Ethiopia, if only to fill in the gaps that may exist here and there in the organization of other work. Of course, we keep open the possibility of going further, if necessary.
I would also like to come back to the consensus we reached in the subcommittee on December 22, that it might be appropriate to schedule two meetings to hear from each of our two ministers in relation to their mandate letters. This would allow us to discuss the priorities that the Prime Minister has set for them and to see how we can support them in fulfilling the mandates given to them by the Prime Minister.
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
