It's an addition to clause 2:
(f) ensure that the Canada Revenue Agency is administering the disability tax credit fairly and that the credit, in order to achieve its purposes, is designed to help as many persons with diabetes as possible.
I'm hoping the clerk shared that with everyone.
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Ron McKinnon
I certainly have a copy of it.
Are there any further questions or comments?
Seeing none, I will ask the clerk to conduct a vote, please.
(Amendment agreed to: yeas 11; nays 0)
The amendment carries, and we'll proceed to the clause itself.
(Clause 2 as amended agreed to)
(Clauses 3 and 4 agreed to)
Shall the short title carry?

Shall the committee order a reprint of the bill as amended for the use of the House at report stage?
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Ron McKinnon
That all being said and done, congratulations, Ms. Sidhu, on the successful passage of your bill.
It will go back to the House at this point. I will be able to report this to the House, I believe, in the next sitting, which will be in two weeks. Then it will go back for the report stage and the third reading process for private members' bills.
We will now proceed to the consideration of the report from the subcommittee.
I believe we need to ratify the report from the committee. I believe the clerk has distributed to all members a copy of the subcommittee report.
In general, we proposed, for the NDP portion of the current study, the first round of topics for this COVID-19 study would be four days, and similarly, four days for the Bloc Québécois study as well.
Following those two portions of the study, we would schedule the two remaining meetings of the PMPRB study for Mr. Thériault. In that process, prior to May 31, we would invite the minister for main estimates.
Mr. Thériault, I see you have your hand up. Is it on this matter?

This concerns another topic, Mr. Chair. It has to do with the routine motions I tabled the other day.
I don't have anything to say about the bill at this time.
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Ron McKinnon
Mr. Davies, I see your hand is up as well. Is that also on another matter, or is it on this particular matter?
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Ron McKinnon
We will recognize both of you after we deal with the report from the subcommittee.
May I have a motion to adopt the report from the subcommittee?
I don't know if I need a motion for that, but I see Mr. Van Bynen is making such a motion.
Is there any discussion on this matter?
Seeing none, we shall vote on the matter. Is there any dissent to ratifying the report from the subcommittee?
Seeing none, I declare that the committee has ratified the report from the subcommittee.
Thank you all.
We will go now to other business.
Monsieur Thériault, you wish to move your routine motions. Please go ahead.
Bloc
Luc Thériault Bloc Montcalm, QC
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I gave notice for two routine motions, so I'd like that we adopt them today, as has been done in other committees.
The first concerns documents translated by the Translation Bureau and reads:
Que tous les documents présentés dans le cadre des travaux du Comité qui ne proviennent pas d’un ministère fédéral ou qui n’ont pas été traduits par le Bureau de la traduction soient préalablement soumis à une révision linguistique par le Bureau de la traduction avant d’être distribués aux membres.
Mr. Chair, do you want to deal with this motion before I move the second motion, or would you like me to move both before we discuss them?
Liberal
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Ron McKinnon
I accept that you have moved that particular motion.
Your wording is not quite what I'm seeing in the motion itself, so I will read the English portion of what I see, which I believe is the motion we are dealing with:
That all documents submitted for Committee business that do not come from a federal department or that have not been translated by the Translation Bureau be sent for prior linguistic review by the Translation Bureau before being distributed to members.
Is that the motion you're moving at this point?
Bloc
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Ron McKinnon
Thank you.
That is the matter before us at this time. Is there any discussion on—
Bloc
Luc Thériault Bloc Montcalm, QC
In any event, Mr. Chair, you have already have the English text, which says the same thing.
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Ron McKinnon
Yes. I wasn't quite clear that what I was hearing you say was exactly that motion. I was listening to the translation. There may have been a little difference.
Don, you still have your hand up. Is that on this?
