Yes.
I think we can deal with that as we go forward.
I request that everyone from each party give a list to our clerk for Monday or, at the latest, Tuesday at noon, maximum. It would be fairer to her if we could get it on Monday.

I have one last quick question.
Ten times four is forty. If we have people coming from all across Canada, does that have to be included in the budget?

It's $1,500.

That's having to spend potentially $1,500 times 30 of the 40 people, so there's another item that we need to take into account.

As I say, this is a work in motion. It's in progress as we go.
First things first: we'll deal with the Vancouver issue and then we'll go on from there.

Mr. Chair, what I'm saying is that the cost and the plans and the budget for Vancouver are one item. The second item is that if we have 30 of our 40 witnesses coming at a cost of $1,500 each, that's another item that somebody, somewhere, is going to have to approve. It may not go to Liaison, but we are going to have to get that approved.

The Chair Conservative Gary Schellenberger
That's a different budget, because we're not travelling. That part, here, is a different budget.
Again, I've been reminded to ask you to put your witnesses in order of importance by ranking them one to five or one to ten as you go down. That might make it easier too, because there might be the same witnesses on some of the lists. We'll do that.
Our clerk and our analysts have a lot of work to do from now until Monday, so we'll adjourn the meeting.
The meeting is adjourned.
