Okay, I will read the whole thing into the record again. Thank you.
Here are the changes that it makes.
First, in (a) of the NDP amendment, which currently reads, “an outline of the measures that the Minister has taken to advance human rights internationally as part of Canada's foreign policy;” the word “Minister” would be replaced with “government”, so it would now read:
(a) an outline of the measures that the government has taken to advance human rights internationally as part of Canada's foreign policy;
It would add the following after subparagraph 10(4)(b)(i):
(i.1) the names of the prisoners of conscience,
It would add the following after subsection (4):
(4.1) In preparing the list referred to in paragraph (4)(b), the Minister must make all reasonable efforts to consult with family members or representatives of the prisoners of conscience and may decide not to include certain information in the list if a person consulted by the Minister requests that the information not be included or the Minister is satisfied that not including it would be in the best interests of the advancement of human rights or the personal safety of the prisoner.
Then it would replace the words “In subsection (4),” in subsection (5) with the following:
In this section,
To those who are referring to the distributed version of the subamendment, reference number 12363478, the subamendment that I moved does not make any deletions from that subamendment. It only adds to it. It takes the words of the existing draft subamendment that was distributed and adds “or the personal safety of the prisoner”, and then it also replaces the word “Minister” with “government” in paragraph (a).
No text has been removed from that draft reference number. In those two cases only, text been added; it is otherwise the same as that draft reference number.
Is that clear to the legislative clerk and to all the members?
