Conservative

John Carmichael Conservative Don Valley West, ON

I have a point of order.

We've allotted time. Out of respect for our witness, why don't we bring an end to the first session, and then we can get at this other piece right away?

12:45 p.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative David Sweet

Yes, thank you.

12:45 p.m.

Liberal

Geoff Regan Liberal Halifax West, NS

I would like more time with the witnesses, but I understand if we can't.

12:45 p.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative David Sweet

I think that's evaporating. I know that Mr. Regan has moved his motion and I know there's a motion to go in camera. We'll take a vote on that.

All those in favour of going in—

12:45 p.m.

NDP

Dan Harris NDP Scarborough Southwest, ON

Perhaps if the witnesses have anything else to share, they could share it with the clerk.

12:45 p.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative David Sweet

Yes, we could do that, Mr. Harris.

All those in favour of going in camera?

(Motion agreed to)

Before I gavel to go in camera, I want to thank the witnesses very much on behalf of the committee. You heard Mr. Harris mention that if there's anything else you haven't been able to present to the committee today, anything you'd like to make sure is on record so that we can consider it as evidence when we do our report, please submit it in writing to the clerk and we'll be glad to give it the same weight as your spoken testimony.

Thank you very much. We're going to pause and go in camera.
