I would move that the following sections be studied: first of all, in paragraph (a)(i), that the aboriginal affairs committee should also be invited to study clause 175; in (a)(vii), that the human resources committee should be invited to study division 7, clauses 193 to 205; division 2, clauses 234 to 263; division 15, clause 307; division 17, clause 315; and division 22, clauses 433 to 463.
Also, we would ask that the industry committee be invited to study part 1, the clauses dealing with the SR and ED program. Those would be 9, 27, and 28, and 62 to 64, as well as division 14, clauses 299 to 306. We'd also, as part of this motion, ask that the government operations committee study division 23, clauses 464 to 514.

I think we had agreement in terms of the schedule before and on the fact that we want to move this forward, but since we have a week in the ridings, if we could stick to the previous schedule—

We could, but still I'm wondering about.... I know we have a very nice chair who makes us work as much as we want to, but I'm not sure about the other committees. As for this committee, I think what we should do is report to the House on the 30th and actually have our last meeting, which was already scheduled, on the 29th.
From what I understand from this amendment, we're losing one very important week when we could look at all the amendments and work on them. Therefore, in section (f), I would change the date from November 21 to November 29, so it would be on Thursday, and then report to the House on or before Friday, November 30.

Okay. Is there any discussion on the amendment?

All those in favour of the main motion of Ms. Glover?
(Motion agreed to)
Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. We will see you tomorrow afternoon.
The meeting is adjourned.
