I call the meeting back to order.
For the clarification of all the members, this committee ceases to exist after June 8. June 8 is the last day. If we present the report on June 6, then June 6 is the last day for this committee and we are done.
Another thing I checked is that the amendment by Madam Damoff is in order. We can have a discussion and then a vote, but I know it's Friday, and I wish that members could somehow come up with a consensus amongst you so that I could let you guys go. Otherwise, I'm here, sitting in the chair, and I'm going to carry on my duties as the chair. I have to continue to acknowledge members as long as we don't have a hard stop from the clerk.
Mr. Van Bynen, you have the floor. Please go ahead with your intervention.
