Thank you.
My motion would have the committee complete its study into the in-and-out scheme, table its report in the House, and at the meeting immediately following the tabling of this committee's report in the House proceed to consideration of Bill C-6. That's not multiple and simultaneous meetings. It means that whenever the committee proceeds to its investigation into Elections Canada's decision to declare illegitimate Conservative candidate expenses from the 2006 election campaign--once the committee begins, concludes, and files a report, then at the meeting immediately following the tabling of its report in the House, it would proceed to consideration of Bill C-6.
If the Conservatives sitting on this committee wish to continue to filibuster, as they have for months on end, paralyzing the work of this committee, including proceeding to consideration of the government's own legislation, Bill C-6, then they can, but they will be the ones putting their own government's legislative agenda and priorities in jeopardy.
