The Bloc Québécois is also of the opinion that any study under way should be completed before a new one is undertaken. The only thing that worries me is the wording of the motion. There is no mention made of the fact that the Chair shall report back to the House. Would the parliamentary secretary like a proper report, that is would he like to be mandated to report back to the House? Or is the objective simply to hold consultations? If that is the case, then I think we should amend the motion. The clerk can correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the motion needs to be worded in technical terms so that the Chair is required to report back to the House. I saw no such wording in Mr. Moore's motion. Perhaps he does not want the Chair to report back to the House. If so, that needs to be clearly stated. Do you in fact want the Chair to report back to the House?
