In response to the comments about consensus, within this committee many times we have failed to reach consensus and have gone to a vote on given issues. So to be very clear on that, the committee has worked hard to sustain consensus.
The way I see it, we have a choice of two things. We could further amend the motion by perhaps saying the committee expresses very serious concerns with the closures. I don't know whether that would be in line with the objective the Bloc member has in moving the motion, but if the concern was around the immigrant complainants and that part remained in, that would be one way of considering dealing with it, or the witnesses....
It's very clear to me that this motion is not going to pass at this stage. I support the motion, so I would suggest that we give consideration to one of those two options.
