Government Operations committee  The vote is tied.

Government Operations committee  That the Treasury Board Secretariat provide to the Standing Committee on Government Operations and Estimates by June 11, 2009—

Government Operations committee  That the Treasury Board Secretariat provide to the Standing Committee on Government Operations and Estimates by June 11, 2009: i) the most recent Central Financial Management Reporting System data for 2008-2009 fiscal year expenditures and lapses by department; and ii) the Expenditure Monitor produced by TBS relating to the final quarter of fiscal 2008-2009 as well as the final copies of all the subsequent quarterly Expenditure Monitor reports as they are completed.

Government Operations committee  Two audits tomorrow, and a report replying to Madame Bourgeois.

Government Operations committee  Since we're having President Vic Toews on May 26, they will probably say he's busy. We might try for the secretary, Mr. Wouters, or other officials from Treasury Board. We've had numerous officials before, but never the hierarchy. That might be an option. Another minister might come and talk about the package.

Government Operations committee  I'm sorry, the agenda before you was printed at 10:32 this morning and there have been three changes already, and it's still a moving target. Follow me, please. On Tuesday, May 12, we have confirmation that the Public Sector Integrity Commissioner, la commissaire à l'intégrité du secteur public , Madame Ouimet, will be here.

Government Operations committee  It has been said for a few weeks now that Public Works is working on the business plan report, as requested. As of this morning, there's still no report in sight. We don't know whether or not we're going to have it today, tomorrow, next week. I only have two witnesses confirmed from Public Works this Thursday, namely Liliane saint pierre and Shereen Miller, who have both appeared before the committee before.

Government Operations committee  It should.

Government Operations committee  Simon Kennedy, from the Privy Council Office, and Alistair Smith, from the Treasury Board Secretariat, will be here.

Government Operations committee  If the House changes the rule in the Standing Orders.... The Standing Orders state May 31, but that--

Government Operations committee  For the main estimates, the deadline by which we should report to the House is May--

Government Operations committee  The deadline is May 31.

Government Operations committee  Not exactly. At this point, we had decided to have a certain number of meetings, with topics for each meeting. We don't have an actual list of witnesses—

Government Operations committee  —but only for the two next meetings on SMEs. As for the general calendar, we took the very last meeting of March 24 and put it today, because the witnesses for today couldn't make it. So they'll be coming on Thursday. So everything else was put back by one meeting, and we just moved up the very last one, because Madame Barrados has been ready since last fall and her report was published last year.

Government Operations committee  What about the supplementary estimates (C), Mr. Chair? We will need to report eventually.
