Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I wish to move the Motion in an amended version pursuant to Standing Order No.48. The amendment I want to include is to replace the word “adopts”, with the word “notes”. And after the word “the”, there is an insertion of the word “progress”. After the words “planning and trade”, there is an insertion of the words “Regional Integration Committee”. That way, the Motion in the Order Paper will comply with the Motion I gave notice to in the morning.
