Thanks, Chair.
First off, my thanks to all the witnesses, especially to the former interpreters. Having spent time—two tours—in Afghanistan, I couldn't have done my job, and none of the Canadian Armed Forces could have done their jobs, without you.
Chair, I have a motion to move, but I do suggest that we push off any discussion of it till after the first round, if you'll commit to that. The motion has now been sent by the clerk to everybody, but I'll read it quickly into the record:
That the Privy Council Office, Global Affairs Canada, and the Canadian Armed Forces and any other government department provide the Special Committee on Afghanistan the already completed or draft after action review reports with respect to the evacuation of Kabul in August of 2021 from the respective departments to the Afghanistan committee for inclusion in the report due back to the House by the 8th of June, 2022.
Thanks, Chair. Will you agree to that?
