Mr. Chairman, the idea of this amendment is to allow all members to be duly able to think about any motion that would be coming regarding any topic. It gives them 48 hours from the time it's distributed in both official languages, and then they can thoughtfully debate and vote on that specific motion. That was the purpose of it. Actually, it is akin in spirit to the one Mr. Hubbard tabled in order to investigate it more. This is designed so that we can make sure that all motions are thought through carefully.
