That deals with Bill C-82.
Thank you, gentlemen, for coming and answering our questions. We went a little far astray on relevance there, but that's all right. I believe you're going to get back to us with some information, Mr. McGowan.
With that—

On a point of order, Mr. Chair, you indicated that maybe at a later point we would want to have some debate about the SNC-Lavalin scandal. We do have a little time. Do you want to do that now?

The Chair Liberal Wayne Easter
I'd love to do that, but the problem with that is that as chair, I can't get into the debate. Maybe we can debate it at a time when I can get into it. I'd love to get into that debate, because jobs are important in the economy, I really believe, and pressure on a cabinet minister is normal.
Mr. Fergus.

Mr. Chair, I would like to propose that we resume debate on the motion that was discussed at the last meeting.
12:40 p.m.

The Chair Liberal Wayne Easter
You can do that, if you want to.
Do you need a motion? It is a motion. Okay. It's been moved.

The Chair Liberal Wayne Easter
I'll go to that, but we'll see what the motion is first, and then we'll come to your point of order, Blake.
What's the motion, Greg?

The motion is on the committee's work with regard to the new study on open banking.

The Chair Liberal Wayne Easter
Okay. We were debating it at a previous meeting and it was amended several times. You're wanting to lift off the table the motion on the proposed study on open banking. That's your motion.

There's a point of order here, and then we'll go to a vote, because there's really no debate on that.

The Chair Liberal Wayne Easter
There's no debate on bringing it back. It goes to a vote, I'm told, according to the rules.
12:40 p.m.
Banff—Airdrie, CPC
Are you saying that happens automatically without even a vote?
12:40 p.m.
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Wayne Easter
No. What I'm saying is that the motion goes immediately to a vote. It's not debatable.
