Thank you, Chair.
I want to perhaps move things along. This is simply a question. I think the clerk might concur. When we have an amendment before us, if it's accepted by the mover, we can move to that question. If the mover accepts the amendment, then we can move on to vote on that and get moving.
The reason I deferred to Mr. Bachand's motion, although I had priority on the list, was that he had certain concerns about it, so I said it was fine and he could put his first. I didn't want to lose the specificity of mine, which was to have certain people come forward. I'm just giving you the rationale for my putting an amendment forward.
But in terms of procedure, if the mover of the motion accepts the amendment, i.e., friendly, I think that can then be adopted with whatever other amendments they want to accept. Then the question is there and we can move on to voting on the motion.
I just wanted to clarify that in terms of process if Mr. Bachand accepts the amendment.
