Mr. Speaker, I have held discussions with representatives of all parties on Bill C-25. Regrettably, the Minister of National Defence has not had the opportunity to speak on it and I understand that he is deemed to have spoken, Bill C-25 being in his name.
I would seek the consent of the House to allow the minister to participate at the next Liberal turn in the normal rotation and for the normal period of 20 minutes, subject to 10 minutes of questions and comments.
