I still would like to set the record straight.
I hope we all realize that, as a matter of procedure, we have just blithely ruled out calling the minister to appear on a very important issue.
With respect to my subamendment, I recall that I had my hand up on the screen when the vote was taken on Mr. Long's amendment, but I was told that the vote was in progress.
It's neither black nor white, however. Some errors in procedure were made, but after the break you told me, Mr. Chair, that you were prepared to consider the subamendment. I understand that we do not have a consensus on that. I am therefore prepared to put forward a new motion.
Mr. Chair, could you please give me a moment?
