Thank you, Chair.
First of all, I just wanted to thank colleagues for their support for the amendment and for the motion of reporting this matter to the House. I thank Mr. Bergeron for his very thoughtful remarks on the importance of the whole House being apprised of this motion and having an opportunity to reflect and comment on it.
Indeed, the subcommittee that was subject to the PRC reaction and sanctions is a subcommittee of this committee, whose report we accepted, endorsed and reported to the House of Commons. I think Mr. Bergeron is absolutely right that the place for this motion to be presented is the full Parliament because the sanctions are an affront to parliamentary democracy. All parliamentarians are therefore affected by that and should be able to see this motion, have it presented to the House and, if at some point someone wishes to raise the debate on it, that can happen. In any event, it will be before the House, which is an appropriate place for it to be.
I want to just thank colleagues for supporting that and thank our colleagues from the Liberal Party for bringing forth this motion to allow this timely debate.
Thank you, Chair.
