Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thank you, MP Turnbull.
From our perspective, obviously, we always say that the committee is master of its own domain. It can always change this if it wants to, and I'm okay with the first three items.
I believe we need to find time in the schedule to do two things on MP Masse's credit card study. One would be to have the time to determine whether or not we need more than four meetings, because we did say—and the motion for the credit card study says this—at least four meetings. I think we have the flexibility in this committee to say, “Okay, we have more witnesses and more testimony we want to hear.” Plus, obviously, there is the planning of the report; the development of that study needs to be built in as well.
On the fourth item, I would be more comfortable if, after the part of the sentence that says “uninterrupted by any other study”, I could propose an amendment that says, “unless otherwise determined by the committee” so that it's clear the committee has options and that we've not agreed to just block ourselves out ad infinitum on Bill C-27 when we have other items that come up on the credit card study or may come up in the future.
Mr. Chair, I would propose that amendment to this motion, just off the top of my head. I don't know if we have anything that we can send to the clerk so that it's in both languages.
