Mr. Chair, I have a motion I'd like to us debate, and I'd also like to file a notice of motion.
The first motion, which I want us to debate, was sent to you 48 hours ago. Ultimately, it's an invitation to the minister to appear.
The minister has made a number of statements that have caused some controversy, as all committee members have realized. We think that the exchange must be continued. We want to have a discussion with the minister concerning judicial appointments that is productive, respectful and conducted in an atmosphere of camaraderie.
I have another motion concerning routine business. I don't know whether I should read it or whether you first want to dispose of my first motion.
