I'm asking you to read me what was passed at this committee the last time, and I'm still maintaining my position on the floor.

Mr. Wallace wants to comment on the motions. He asked at the beginning of his time for you to read them.

4:50 p.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Michael Chong

I understand that.

4:50 p.m.

Conservative

Mike Lake Conservative Edmonton—Mill Woods—Beaumont, AB

Perhaps you could distribute them to him or something so that he could read them while he's making the point he's making. I think it's important to the point he's trying to make.

4:50 p.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Michael Chong

I understand that. I'm trying to get the meeting moving, because we only have six minutes left to this meeting, and I want to afford Mr. Garneau a chance for the floor as well.

So I'll have the clerk give you the text of the two motions.
