Thank you, Mr. Chair.
As someone who's new to this committee and familiar with the report by the previous committee, I feel I need to reiterate my intention in coming to this table with all of you from all sides of the aisle in the House to do important work for Canadians on key issues that many Canadians feel vulnerable about in terms of privacy and access to information. My colleague, Mr. Fergus, mentioned facial recognition.
Canadians expect us to do that important work here. They don't want us to be rehashing what we've already come to a conclusion about and wasting valuable time. I have to say that I'm really asking that we don't entertain such motions that stir the pot on reports that we've already reviewed, quite extensively, by way of the broad motions on the table now that really don't allow us to do the important work that got tabled last time and that colleagues and members and Canadians are asking us to do this time around. As someone who is new to this committee, I'm really not comfortable in bringing up old reports that have already been concluded. I'm looking forward to moving forward on the work in this committee.
