They're always friendly amendments coming from me, Mr. Chair.
I'm going to go back because I want to make sure I'm reading it exactly the way it is. I do not have the copy of your motion, Mr. Bezan, so I apologize.
I think my understanding is that it would read that, pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), the committee undertake a study on all defence expenditures since 2013 and their impacts on the operational readiness of the Canadian Armed Forces; that the committee hold a minimum of three meetings for this study; that the committee invite the Minister of National Defence, Mr. Bill Blair, and deputy minister Bill Matthews to appear before the committee for the study; and that the committee report its findings and recommendations to the House.
