Mr. Chairman, I agree with the motion that is in front of us, that the report on the organizational structure should be given to us as to the rationale for the changes and the anticipated benefits that we're going to receive from making these changes. I agree with that, but the committee is also further recommending that the report be provided to the standing committee by December 23rd.
I'm just wondering, Mr. Chairman, if the standing committee would agree with me if we could ask the government to provide this particular report prior to dealing with the 1995-96 capital estimates of the Department of Municipal and Community Affairs. I understand the department is willing to provide Members with a briefing on this issue. If that's the case, then I can't see why she can't provide this report prior to us dealing with their department's capital budget.
Mr. Chairman, I move that the motion be amended by deleting the words "by December 23, 1994" and substitute the following "of the whole prior to consideration of the detail of the 1995-96 capital estimates of the Department of Municipal and Community Affairs".
