The Chair Conservative Greg Kerr

Normally the chair would report it, or the vice-chair if the chair is not there, or the second vice-chair. The three of us won't be here. I'm going to suggest, if in agreement, that the parliamentary secretary report this tomorrow.

11:50 a.m.

Peter Stoffer NDP Sackville—Eastern Shore, NS

That's fine. We don't have a problem with that.

11:50 a.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Greg Kerr

Okay, so he'll be reporting it. That sort of says some of us aren't going to be here tomorrow; I hope that's not recorded.

The committee will return after the vote. It will be in camera. We will be dealing specifically with the finalization of the report.

We are in recess until 12:30.
