Seeing the timing now and that the question has been called, the motion further reads:
1) That, in support of the historic truth and as requested by Mustafa Dzhemilev, the Crimean Tatar deportation of 1944 be recognized as a genocide perpetrated by Soviet dictator Stalin, and that May 18 be designated a day of remembrance for the Crimean Tatar deportation (Sürgünlik).
(Motion agreed to)
It passes unanimously. I thank the members of this committee for their work on this.

Mr. Chair, on a point of order, I would like us to be able to proceed now to a discussion in public of a motion on the genocide of the Tamils.

Further, I don't have consent to proceed past 15 minutes. That's what we spoke about before. The bells are ringing, so at this point I'm going to have to adjourn.
The meeting is adjourned.
