I'd like to make sure that I understand.
Earlier, I thought I heard Mr. Koops say to Mr. Julian that the previous subamendment being proposed was too long and that it would be better to just replace "Governor in Council" by the word "Minister". That's also what the subamendment we are now examining is attempting to do.
However, Mr. Gaheer would like to keep:
“In making recommendations for appointments of members....”
As I understand it, according to Mr. Koops the wording should remain as is with just "Governor in Council" replaced by "Minister". It would therefore begin as follows: "In making recommendations for appointments of members of the Commission, the Minister must seek to reflect…"
Is that correct, Mr. Koops, or is it essential to add the proposed words in this instance?
