I don't have the motion in front of me. One day, it will be translated into French. In the meantime, I stress that I am not in favour of limiting debate to five minutes per clause. With all the experts, the people present on this side of the table who have some ideas to put forward to enrich the debate, we cannot allow ourselves in five minutes to debate, advance and improve this bill, which is very complex since it amends nine acts. In five minutes, we cannot advance the debate.
To conclude, I will day that this does not correspond to our role as elected representatives. As parliamentarians, we have a duty to debate and advance files, whether in the House or in committee. I too was elected recently, but I noticed that, in the House, we were allowed 30 seconds for each oral question and 60 seconds for each statement by a member. Here, in committee, I expected there would be a little more time to debate the issues.
So I will continue through the day to oppose this determination to limit to five minutes per clause the debate on the amendments, that is, until 11:59 p.m.
