Thank you, Mr. Chair.
After hearing all the comments, I would like to put forward a motion to ensure that we will be able to provide the Standing Committee on Finance with a document and that the department has enough time to work on the study.
I'll have the motion sent out to everyone. It reads as follows:
That, pursuant to the motion adopted by the Standing Committee on Finance on Thursday, May 12, 2022, inviting the Standing Committee on Human Resources, Skills and Social Development and the Status of Persons with Disabilities to study the subject matter of the Part 5, Divisions 26, 27, 29 and 32 of Bill C‑19, and taking into consideration the uncertainty of the availability of the House of Commons services during the week of May 24, 2022:
(a) the committee invite relevant officials from the Department of Employment and Social Development for one hour studying Part 5, Divisions 26, 27, 29 and 32 of Bill C‑19;
(b) during the second hour of that same meeting, the committee provide drafting instructions for a letter to the Chair of the Standing Committee on Finance, containing recommendations in relation to the provisions studied by the committee.
The reason for the motion is to ensure that we hold not only two meetings, but also a two-hour meeting. If I understand correctly, the meeting will take place next Thursday.
