Now we're on to the notice of motion from Mr. Shipley. I'll just read it into the record, and then probably allow Mr. Shipley to speak to it and start off things.
The motion is:
That the Committee on Veterans Affairs work with Veterans Affairs Canada to arrange a study tour of Canadian bases and their operations as part of our discussion on Health Care and the Veterans Independence Program.
That being said, I'm going to open it up and allow Mr. Shipley to speak first, because he's the originator of the motion.
A couple of people have mentioned that there may be some members of the committee who would wish to refer to last week's in camera discussion. I would say that if you want to refer to the decision, it is permissible within the procedures or rules regarding what can be referred to from in camera meetings. However, because it is a matter of national security, and if people are intent on making that trip, I would advise them to be judicious in their comments. And it is not permissible to refer to what was said by given members during that discussion, because it was in camera.
I have just prefaced that for whatever debate there will be.
Mr. Shipley.
