Thank you. The motion is therefore defeated.
We'll proceed with Mr. Champoux's second motion.
Mr. Champoux, you've already read it. I'll read it again quickly to see whether people have any comments.
That the clerk inform each witness who is to appear before the Committee that the House Administration support team must conduct technical tests to check the connectivity and the equipment used to ensure the best possible sound quality; and that the Chair advises the Committee, at the start of each meeting, of any witness who did not perform the required technical tests.
I don't think there will be much debate on this, but I don't want to take away your right to speak. Does anyone have any comments on this motion?
There being no comments, I will turn the floor back to the clerk so we can proceed to a vote.
(Motion agreed to: yeas, 10; nays, 0)
Mr. Champoux, you are batting .500. That is not so bad.
I gave my thanks earlier. I'll just add the ones I owe to Mr. Champoux, who allowed me to practice managing motions during a committee meeting.
Mr. Champoux, would you like to say a few words? They will surely be the final ones.
