I've been trying to reach an agreement, but I actually agree in principle with a lot of what's being said about the importance of the issues to be studied. The question for me is how we do it, and what Mr. Maloney has raised.
What I would like to do is propose a friendly amendment to the second bullet, as I had mentioned before. I'm going to do this more formally, so that it can be voted upon.
The second bullet says:
That the Minister of Natural Resources be invited to appear before the committee prior to February 28th, 2022, for no fewer than two hours on the subject matter of the Supplementary Estimates (B) 2021-2022;
Given that those supplementary estimates have already been voted on and adopted by Parliament, I would suggest that the amendment be that it reads instead, “That the Minister of Natural Resources be invited to appear before the committee for no fewer than two hours on the subject matter of the Supplementary Estimates (C), if any, and the Main Estimates”.
