I missed what you said.

As we know by the rules, Mr. Chair, we can move motions during committee if they are relevant to the subject matter at hand. That is what I have done. It's not a written motion. It's an oral motion, and I would hope that interpretation would have caught it.

Thank you.
I appreciate the motion that's been brought forward. However, I, and I'm sure most of us, have not seen the information that Mr. Bezan may have. It's hard for me to vote on a motion based on information that we haven't had a chance to review.
I'm wondering if maybe we can discuss this in a committee-business situation.

We can. I'm running up against the clock here.
The motion is properly before us. It is a debatable motion. It doesn't have to be about official languages at this point, because it's not a written motion.
Having said that, I would entertain a motion to adjourn.

I'd be more than happy to defer debate on this until the next committee meeting.

That's fine. Is everyone good with that?
With that, I want to thank General Boucher again for this unusual hour. We appreciate your contribution to the committee's study.
With that, colleagues, we are adjourned.
