I'll read them slowly. They're very short anyway.
I move that the first sentence, which begins with, “That the committee recommend that the federal government suspend...”, end before the first semicolon, with, “that demonstrates their improved confidence and readiness for CARM implementation”.
In addition, I would like to add “reception of the documents requested last spring” to the conditions, so that nothing would come into force before the documents are received.
Finally, at the very end of the motion, I move to add “and report to the House”.
I hope my Conservative colleagues are prepared to accept these proposals.

The Chair Liberal Judy Sgro
I want to suggest that we suspend for a few minutes so that we thoroughly understand the amendments from Monsieur Savard-Tremblay.
I will suspend for a very few minutes, if you don't mind.

Through you, Madam Chair, to the clerk, is there any opportunity for us to also invite the Canadian Society of Customs Brokers?
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Judy Sgro
Yes. It's a question of when. I think we need to keep the witnesses all in the same time. We'll add the custom brokers as well.
Do we have anyone else who we think is really pertinent to trying to bring this discussion to a direction?

Madam Chair, this request is sort of unexpected. Can we send you names by email?
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Judy Sgro
You don't have to give them to me now. You can send them by email to the clerk if you have a couple of suggestions of people who you think are pertinent to our dealing with this issue.

I think the key is trying to get it done on Wednesday, because the blackout period starts on the fourth, right?

The Chair Liberal Judy Sgro
We think half an hour will be sufficient to deal with the motion. That will be the first half hour. The other hour and a half will be some additional witnesses over and above what we possibly have today.
Conservative
Tony Baldinelli Conservative Niagara Falls, ON
Yes. Let's flip that. We'll hear from the witnesses, and then we'll do the last bit.
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Judy Sgro
The last half hour will be dealing with this motion. All right.
Is everybody good with that? Okay.
The meeting is adjourned.
