I would simply like to mention that I looked at the motion adopted by the Standing Committee on Human Resources, Skills and Social Development and the Status of Persons with Disabilities. The motion adopted does not make any reference whatsoever to a guaranteed minimum income or a specific measure in that regard.
The study referred to in the motion will focus on four key areas, each of which will require four meetings. So there will be 16 meetings in all. The topics to be studied are: housing; education and training; pension plans and government benefits; and neighbourhoods, which will include infrastructure among other topics.
There is no reference whatsoever to discussing or debating a guaranteed minimum income. Before my motion is put to a vote, I think that information would be useful to our committee.
