Good afternoon, everyone.
Mr. Clerk, thank you for distributing the motion so quickly.
From the Parliamentary Budget Officer's remarks, I have certainly gathered that the Department of Finance's bi-weekly reports were useful. They provided us with good data to monitor expenditures related to COVID-19. As has often been mentioned, it is important that those reports resume. If I understood correctly, Ms. Koutrakis found it a worthwhile idea.
However, I have just had a discussion with Mr. Fraser and, in order not to inconvenience our guests and in order not to get into extended debates on this motion, I would like everyone's agreement to discuss it next week when we will be discussing all the motions. As the subcommittee has decided, time will be set aside next week for discussion on the motions. If that suits everyone, we could discuss this one at that time.
