I think this is an important motion. I have had briefings and actual conversations with the good folks at DFO and with people I know on the flooding situation in B.C. Our hearts go out to those individuals.
I have been thinking about this. I think the committee members deserve to be briefed on the situation, and that's why I'll be proposing that we add an amendment. I'm thinking that if we amend the motion to include that we ask for one meeting on the subject and that we include the department officials to appear at that meeting to provide a briefing to the committee, that would be one part.
The next part would be a question for the clerk, I suppose. With regard to the larger piece on infrastructure and making sure that we're within the mandate of the committee, can the clerk provide any insight that this aspect doesn't fall to, say, the infrastructure committee?
