Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'm just speaking briefly in support of this motion. That's one of the reasons I couldn't vote to adjourn debate. One of the important roles of a legislative committee is that oversight function over the executive branch.
I believe that for too long we have been awaiting a sense of direction from the government on this issue. It has consumed the media for a number of years. Many people in Canada are not sure why we continue to have a delay on it.
As a part of our oversight functions over the executive branch, I definitely support this committee taking a firm stand and sending this letter to the minister.
