I'm happy to accept the first portion of Ms. Hughes' comment that we'll accept the information, but not with the caveat that we would necessarily be moving forward with the study.

Carol Hughes NDP Algoma—Manitoulin—Kapuskasing, ON
The way I am putting this is not that we're going to move forward with it, but that we need to make a decision to consider whether we're going to continue with the study.

The Chair Conservative Ed Komarnicki
Let's try to get that as an amendment to the motion and put some words to it.
What I heard you say was that the committee be provided with the information from the previous study of the federal support measures to adoptive parents, etc., and that the evidence and documentation received during the third session of the 40th Parliament on the subject be taken into consideration by the committee in this session in deciding whether to resume the study.
Is that what you're hoping to say?

The Chair Conservative Ed Komarnicki
I suppose we still have a few minutes. I think we've covered a lot of ground. We could stop here, or have some general discussion about where you'd like to see this committee go, and whatever.
Mr. McColeman.

That's not a bad thing to vote on at this time of the day.
(Motion agreed to)
When we come back in the fall we'll see you. Have a good summer.
The meeting is adjourned.
