Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Honourable members, good morning.
On Thursday, I put some motions on notice, and the time has come to debate them. I have two.
With your permission, Mr. Chair, I will read the first one. Then, we can discuss it and move on to the next. That would be the best way to proceed.
I will read the motion slowly, so the interpreters can do their job properly.
That, pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), the Committee undertakes a study of the expenditure of nearly $100,000 in public funds by the Governor General of Canada for catering services during an eight day tour of the Middle East in March 2022; and that the Committee invites the Governor General to appear before the Committee for a period of two (2) hours on or before June 23, 2022.
If I may, Mr. Chair, I will explain my reason for proposing the motion.
