I am very encouraged by the Conservatives wanting to push forward government legislation to help us pass it speedily. That's a very great sign. I think having a prestudy on this is something we would certainly welcome.
I agree with Mr. Davies that we can probably deal with and dispense with this motion quickly, but I have a couple of amendments I'd like to propose. I hope they'll be friendly amendments.
Let me read them into the record. I'll read in English what I'm proposing, which I think is very consistent with what the Conservatives put forward here:
That the committee hold no fewer than four meetings devoted to a prestudy on the ways and means motion introduced in the House of Commons on June 10, 2024, that at least one meeting be held prior to June 25, 2024, that witnesses be submitted by each party prior to Friday at 5:00 p.m., that this study be deemed the committee's priority in the fall, that all evidence gathered as part of the prestudy be considered as evidence in the committee's study of capital gains legislation upon its referral to committee, and that clause-by-clause consideration of the bill start no later than one week following the bill's referral to committee.
That's what I would propose as an amendment. Hopefully, it's a friendly amendment.
