Thank you so much, Mr. Chair.
My motion is fairly similar to one of the motions brought forward by Mrs. Kusie. Hopefully the subcommittee will be able to merge these together if the committee deems it a priority. It would be a general study—a little broader than what Mrs. Kusie discussed—of biosecurity in the transportation sector.
The motion is as follows: “ That the committee undertake a study focusing on the role that innovative biotechnology—for example, temperature screening, retinal scans and face recognition—can play in improving the safety and security of our transportation sector, including increasing public confidence in said sector; and that, in consultation with the committee members, the chair be empowered to coordinate the resources of scheduling necessary to execute these studies in six meetings or fewer.”
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
