—taking everybody through the current situation. Then we can question from there.

I just draw attention to the time. We're a bit over.

Is there anything else that's urgent at this point?

Mr. MacKenzie.

The only thing, Mr. Chair, is that we don't seem to be able to plan very far on items. I think Mr. Ménard has mentioned the Laval thing, and as a committee, I think we had decided at one point that we need to look at pandemic planning, and that was where that fell in.

We don't have to do it today, but I think we can't lose from the radar screen that we need to look at some items. We have a concern. We think we should be spending some time on stolen vehicles that are shipped out of the country. I think it's a significant issue.

I have no objection, Mr. Chair, that we use the operation of a steering committee, because we--all of us--spend a lot of time doing this; we're doing the steering committee's business.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Garry Breitkreuz

We tried it that way. Then we come back to the main committee and people don't agree with what we're doing. We don't save any time. That's why it happens to be this way.

Sue Barnes Liberal London West, ON

Can I move to adjourn?

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Garry Breitkreuz

Tentatively, we may go to Laval on April 26.

Okay. This committee is expected to do certain things, and we're not doing some of the basic things that we should do at this committee, so....

This meeting stands adjourned.
