Thank you for that.
We'd have to amend the motion to reflect that it just occur for one hour. We still have the issue, though—and this is the challenge that I have—that Mr. Fonseca wants us to meet before July 31.
I'm just going to get clarification on this from the clerk. Stand by a second, please.
I appreciate your patience on that. It's the first time I've had to deal with this as a chair on pre-budget consultations.
The first question that Mr. Fonseca has for the committee is whether we'd be interested in participating in next fall's pre-budget consultations. They're reaching out similarly to other committees.
The second thing that he is asking us is whether the committee would be interested in participating in the study of “any such subject matter contained in the bill.” That's something that we would have to determine, but I think Mr. Villemure's motion may address that.
It was amending it to say “one hour”. Is that right?
Are we agreed on that?
We're going to amend the motion to reflect one hour of committee time on this.
First of all, is there any other discussion on the amendment for one hour? Are we good?
(Amendment agreed to)
(Motion as amended agreed to)
Lastly, I don't have any other business before us before the end of the session. We do have a meeting that's scheduled on Friday. At this point, I'm still going to hold on to that meeting, but it may be required that we cancel that meeting—just to make everybody aware of that.
That's it for today. I want to thank—
