Mr. Chair, thank you.
I'd like to thank Mr. Bezan for bringing this motion. Operation Impact is of course a very important operation.
Mr. Bezan, I wonder if you'd be open to an amendment to have the chief of the defence staff appear instead of the minister. He would be in a position to provide much more detail with respect to the operation on the ground.
The second is in respect to placing this at the right time, not only with respect to existing work that the committee is facing but also with respect to the fluidity of developments on the ground, to not tie ourselves to a 30-day time requirement.
