I also want to express my opinion on this motion, which I think is very important and which we have already debated, as I said earlier. We've thoroughly examined it. Anything else would probably be a bit of bad faith, but we could be surprised.
Out of respect for the witnesses here, we should proceed quickly. I think we all agree and know where we stand with this bill. We heard 20 hours of evidence, as our conservative friends had asked us to do. We accepted that very willingly. My colleague Mr. Nater will be able to confirm that, because it was he who proposed that evidence be given for 20 hours in total.
So we can very well agree that the deadline for tabling amendments will be Friday, at 4 p.m., as proposed in Mr. Julian's motion. Then, we can start clause-by-clause consideration of this very important bill on Monday, at our next scheduled meeting.
I hope that we will have the good sense to hurry up and vote on this important motion.
