Thank you, Chair.
My initial thoughts about this are that I saw the draft report on quantum computing. We spent some time on that, hearing the witnesses and all. I know we don't have much time left; we don't have many meetings left before the session ends. I would like to make sure that we put aside some time to wrap up that study. It appears there are a lot of persons interested in that subject.
With regard to asking the ministers to come over here and answer some questions, I think it's a good idea. I think it's their portfolio. The only thing I will point out is that the time prescribed in the motion is before June 21. I just don't know how realistic that is, given that one of the ministers is the Minister of International Trade. She travels all the time. I don't even know whether or not she is in the country.
Can I perhaps ask for a friendly amendment? Maybe take it away, remove it or replace it with “as soon as possible”. Even if we as a committee prescribe a deadline, if that doesn't work out with her schedule, we will have to come back with another proposal. It's just a friendly amendment, and I want to see if my honourable colleague would consider that.
