Okay, we have a tie. The chair will break the decision in favour of sustaining my own decision, to be consistent.
(Ruling of the chair sustained)
We'll move on now. We have the motion as amended on the floor.
The motion reads as follows:
That the Committee accepts the request of Mr. Jean Malavoy, General Secretary of the Table de concertation du livre franco-ontarien, to appear before the Committee and that this meeting be held on December 13, 2011.
Is there any discussion?
Seeing none, I'm going to call the question on the motion as amended.
(Motion as amended agreed to)
Thank you very much.
We'll now move on to the second motion I received, which was from Monsieur Gourde.
Mr. Gourde, you have the floor.
