Yes, I think that this is important, if I could remember it.
It was that the additional hours, that approach be tabled against the development of some sort of a methodology that we are going to consider amendments. Other than more deputations, we really haven't talked about a schedule of how we're going to deal with amendments. And I'm not suggesting that we should deal with amendments as the Martin-Poilievre mechanism that has developed. I'm very envious of that. I would hope there's one that I can be included on for the next round so I could get credit for it.
Mr. Chairman, seriously, I don't think the committee is at all opposed to extended meetings, whether it's within the framework suggested by Mr. Poilievre or another one, if it's against a work schedule. And that work schedule is how are we going to go through the clause-by-clause?
If we don't have any sense of and any intake of suggested amendments, I think we're just going to be spinning our wheels. So my suggestion would be that we table this motion and that members give consideration, or that our parliamentary research give consideration, as to the methodology that we will be using, whether we can prioritize amendments, and that we can start scheduling part of our work program on actually that clause-by-clause, but much more focused than just starting at the beginning and going through the bill.
If that makes sense, Mr. Chairman, I put it forward.
