Thank you, Madam Chair.
The motion I gave notice of is that a message be sent to the Senate inviting their honours to give leave to the minister and Senator Michael Fortier to appear before the Standing Committee on Government Operations and Estimates in the next two weeks to answer questions concerning procurement policy changes.
As I indicated at the last meeting, we know that the minister has plans to make significant changes in this regard. It obviously affects not only businesses that do business with the federal government, but it's important for all Canadians to understand what this government is planning in the area of procurement. So our interest is in having the minister outline his plans sooner rather than later.
Thank you.
(Motion agreed to)
