Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I just want to address some of the comments made by my colleagues across the way. First of all, as I mentioned earlier, these are minor, minor amendments. They do refer to the subject at hand. And there isn't anything stopping a member of this committee from table-dropping amendments of a minor nature as long as they are dealing with the subject at hand.
With regard to understanding these amendments, I mentioned earlier that—whether you trust it or not—really it's to reverse an unexpected consequence so that people who are currently receiving the GIS will not lose that right. In fact it's to some extent watering down what was put forward, making it have less of an impact.
If there are other questions or specific questions, then, as was mentioned, we have the official here from the department. You may not trust me, but you can trust the official, I'm sure.
We also have the act. The act is available online. We have it on the iPad here.
Look, as mentioned, we're not trying to pull any wool over anybody's eyes. It is what it is. We're being open about it and clear as to what the intention was, and I'm sure you would understand that.
Mr. Chair, I would ask that you allow these amendments to be put to the committee now.
