Thank you, Madam Chairperson.
This motion stands on its own for the work of the health committee. Given the reaction, I think, to the Liberal motion presented yesterday and the idea of another whole structure, another semi-permanent subcommittee--sub or not--it was felt that it's the last thing we need, and that in fact what we need is a mechanism by which, if necessary, the health committee is consulted.
The committee is now made up of all parties and has good expertise from all parties. It was felt that there's no need to reinvent the wheel and set up another whole structure just to do this. In fact, between the regular briefings we're getting, the work of the Public Health Agency of Canada, and the work of our own committee, we have provisions to deal with the unfolding situation with respect to the swine influenza.
