Mr. Chair, just as a point of order, was this supposed to be available on the website at this point? There is nothing there right now.

The Chair Liberal Wayne Easter
No, it's only at committee. It hasn't passed, so it wouldn't be on the website.
Madam Clerk, could you read it, please?
Evelyn Lukyniuk
The amendment by Mr. Kelly reads, “That the evidence heard and papers received by the committee during its study on government spending, WE and the Canada student service grant during the first session of the 43rd Parliament be taken into consideration by the committee during the current session and, accordingly”. And then we would go back to the first paragraph from the motion by Mr. Poilievre: “that the chair be instructed to present the following report”.

Mr. Chair, nothing has been received. There are no documents on the website. I know it was mentioned before that there are no documents on the website. I looked at it just now, so it's hard to see how we're proceeding here.

The Chair Liberal Wayne Easter
We may have to get clarity on this. I think the clerk has indicated that the documents and evidence are still on our public website, so we will have to look into that—

Is it possible for the clerk to maybe take a moment to find the link and perhaps ensure that we have it?
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Wayne Easter
We'll do that following this vote, because it really amounts more to the original motion that the documents be available.

On another point of order, Mr. Chair, would it be possible for us to suspend just for a few moments for the clerk to be able to do that?

On a point of order, Mr. Chair, that would make me comfortable. I think that would bring assurance to the issue.

I note that Mr. Fragiskatos's comfort is not part of the committee's mandate.

Point of order, Mr. Chair.
It's great to see Mr. Poilievre back, but proper procedure is part of the committee's mandate. We need assurances on whether or not the documents are on the website.

This is publicly available information. This is not proper procedure.
