Thanks very much, Chair.

I just want to take the first part of my time and give notice of a motion. I'm not moving a motion.

I'm not splitting my time, Monsieur Villemure.

I'll submit it in both official languages, though I know that translation will capture it. The motion is as follows: “That the committee dedicate one of its remaining Access to Information and Privacy Systems study meetings to hear from the witnesses listed below in regard to the...hotel costs of up to $6,000 per night, associated with the Prime Minister's trip to London in September of 2022, that were made public through an Access to Information request; That the following witnesses be invited: [the Honourable] Mélanie Joly, Minister of Foreign Affairs; Frédéric Huot-Bolduc, Global Affairs; Davon Singh, Global Affairs; and Jason Kung, Global Affairs.”

I can transmit that to the clerk for ease of distribution.
