Thank you, Chair.
We can't support this fire-and-forget approach to calendar and committee management. It's unnecessary. The minister has made himself regularly available. It's burdensome. We've received departmental status results reports. We have an established mechanism through which departments provide updates.
This asks for a lot of reports. We can always ask for more information. We don't need to slow down departments with broad status report obligations. We can always ask for more information.
This motion fetters this committee. It makes us less able to respond to events as they are and to issues as they come forward. We of course understand why the opposition is bringing it up at this time, but it's just bad practice.
I recommend that we just call the vote.
