From the explanations I have heard up to this point, this is a significant change. It seemed clear to us, according to the schedule of committee meetings that had already been established, that we were going to do the clause-by-clause study of this bill on November 29. Pre-budget consultations were already scheduled on November 21.
Here is why Ms. Nash made her suggestion: if we receive amendments from other committees by November 20, we will have the time to analyze the amendments, internally and one by one, and we could be ready for the clause-by-clause study on November 29.
We are not opposed to the idea of sending clauses to some committees, getting them back, studying them and then doing the clause-by-clause study on November 29 as scheduled. That is why I am confused by the desire to finish everything before November 21 and to send it all to the House on November 22.
