As you know, Ms. Chow, it was agreed that this bill would be heard, and that whatever this committee was reviewing would stop and we'd review this bill immediately. That was in the work plan and we are now doing that. We're stopping immediately.
As you know the custom of this place--as with most jurisdictions in this country--when a bill is introduced and comes to a committee, the minister for that particular ministry comes to the committee and briefs us as to what the bill is all about, along with his staff. That is what he is going to do now.
As for the rest of it, you're quite right, the subcommittee did discuss these matters and all the other matters, and that will be discussed later in this meeting. The reason why it's on later in this meeting is because I think we all want to hear what the minister is going to say, and we don't want to delay that.
So we'll proceed.
Minister, thank you very much for coming.
