Canada-China Relations committee  Yes. Thank you, Mr. Chair. What I have here is essentially Ms. Zann asking the committee to reject the reasons that were provided from PHAC and to uphold the order for the production of documents, essentially meaning that it's a new motion that the unredacted documents be provid

Canada-China Relations committee  Yes. Give me just one moment here. It would be the motion that was adopted by this committee on March 31, 2021. Do you want me to read the whole thing?

Canada-China Relations committee  I have: That the committee send for all information and documents in the possession of the Public Health Agency of Canada or any subsidiary organizations relating to the transfer of Ebola and Henipah viruses to the Wuhan Institute of Virology in March of 2019 and the subsequent

Canada-China Relations committee  Thank you, Mr. Chair. In these circumstances, I would say that moving a motion to ask for the same documents again would be essentially the same as rejecting the reasons provided by the Public Health Agency to not provide the documents, essentially upholding the committee's deci

Canada-China Relations committee  I just wanted to let you know that Mr. Chong raised his hand in the room as well.

Canada-China Relations committee  The motion I have from Ms. Zann is as follows: That the unredacted documents from the Public Health Agency of Canada be provided to the Law Clerk and Parliamentary Counsel for him to review and ascertain the fairness of them.

Canada-China Relations committee  Yes. Thank you, Chair. I received the motion. Thank you very much. It's only in English, so I cannot share it with the members right away, but I did send a copy to the interpreters. I'm wondering if maybe Mr. Genuis can repeat, and we can have it in both official languages thro

Canada-China Relations committee  What I read previously was, “That the unredacted documents from the Public Health Agency of Canada be provided to the Law Clerk and Parliamentary Counsel.” I do have another part, “to review and ascertain”, and then I am missing additional words.

Canada-China Relations committee  Yes, absolutely. The first motion moved by Ms. Zann was, “That the unredacted documents from the Public Health Agency of Canada be provided to the Law Clerk and Parliamentary Counsel.” It's very possible that I missed the last part, but that was the version I had. I have the a

Canada-China Relations committee  I'll read the amendment: That the motion be amended by adding the words “within 7 days” after the words “Parliamentary Counsel” and the words “And should the documents not be provided, that the committee report the following to the House: Your committee recommends that an Order

Canada-China Relations committee  The additional text would be “to review and ascertain the fairness of them”, speaking of the redactions that were made.

Canada-China Relations committee  Yes. I do have it here. We're essentially taking the b) from the motion that was adopted on March 31, 2021, and just replacing the b) from the amendment from Mr. Genuis as a subamendment. When we are doing motions in this committee, we don't need to put the name of the committe

Canada-China Relations committee  Yes, absolutely. It would have the headline that says “Special Committee on Canada-China Relations” and then the text of the motion.

Canada-China Relations committee  Yes, it does.
