Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I understand Ms. Zarrillo's motion very clearly, but I just want to confirm that the report of the Standing Committee on Human Resources, Skills and Social Development and the Status of Persons with Disabilities on the urban, rural and northern indigenous housing strategy, which took up nearly eight meetings, was tabled in the House of Commons and that the government received it. I witnessed it, which is why I can confirm it for you. As I mentioned the other day, the recommendations from that report call for the committee to be kept informed. That hasn't been done, of course, as a result of delays. So I had virtually the same question in mind: given where we now stand, would the government already be able to table a report?
We spent a lot of time on that report and it was a major study. As for what might be considered the right time to receive the report, even though I agree on the principle, I think we should make sure it's the right time. It would be unfortunate if we were told that very little had been put in place to date, which could be explained. I encourage you to read the report and remind those who were there during the study that the primary objective is that the strategy be developed for indigenous people and by indigenous people.
It's nevertheless a good thing for the committee to be able to receive a report, but now the task seems to be to determine the right time to receive it. I agree that this is a question we could put to the minister. Then we could see where we stand.
