Thank you, Madam Chair.
I'd like to propose a motion to the committee. There's an apparent consensus on the issue of the direction for the accounting that the government should take. The motion, if I may read it, says that the committee report to the House that it calls on the government to implement accrual-based budgeting before 2009.
I know there is typically a 48-hour notice, but I'd like to ask for unanimous consent to waive it so that we can discuss this today.
