Perhaps I'll try a friendly amendment again, and I might be a little more successful this time.
The friendly amendment would read as follows, if it's acceptable to Madame Barbot:
As ten months has passed since the round table of the Advisory Group Report on the National Roundtables on Corporate Social Responsibility and the Canadian Extractive Industry in Developing Countries (tabled on March 29, 2007), and the Government has not tabled a response, the Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs and International Development invite the Minister of Foreign Affairs to appear before the Committee to explain the Government's intentions.
First of all, we need to know whether that's acceptable.
