At the core of this bill is setting up a committee to consider ongoing defence issues. We heard that clearly from the minister when she read the terms of reference for the committee. Surely, it's consistent with a third reading to discuss current, ongoing defence issues in light of this committee. I hear my colleague making reference to the secrecy of the committee. It's entirely within the scope of the third reading to discuss current defence issues.
