Mr. Chair, doing a quick math of approximately 22 meetings we have starting next week, we have a lot to cover. I'm quite concerned that with the amount of work that's going to be passed on to the steering committee, we may not get productive until we're well past the 22 meetings. We may end up with only 18 meetings after hearing from the steering committee and having to debate that further.
In the interest of moving along as we are required, there is a legislative requirement to review the Species at Risk Act. I was hoping we would hear from the whips. As I said earlier, this was raised at the whips' level. When we did CEPA, and there was a legislative requirement to review CEPA, we did that at committee. It was moved and it began.
So I am going to move my motion that we undertake the five-year legislative review of the Species at Risk Act, as required by the said act, and that that review begin Tuesday of next week.
