It's just a response to Ms. Glover.

My comments were not made towards the member of this committee. I think you all have been very respectful. My comments were made towards the cabinet ministers of the government.

Okay.

We started with chocolate between the members and we finished with a little political dispute, but we want to thank you very much.

Again, if you have anything further for us to consider, please do submit it to the clerk. We'll ensure all members get it.

Thank you so much for being with us here today.

The meeting is adjourned.
