There is nothing decided officially. I just want to make sure that this is how we will operate.

I was just going to answer, yes, something has been decided. And in answer to your point, yes, those issues that you talked about have already been approved by motion. We will be dealing with them. The notice of motions and the content of them, if approved, will be added on to this. That would be my perception.
Mr. Storseth.

We've already voted on this as per the motion, the confusing motion that Mr. Atamanenko and I moved. You took care of it.

Tentatively, the following Tuesday we would have Darrin Qualman and a couple of ranchers or something that we can work out.

Before we finish, Mr. Chair, I have noticed that the journalists still do not have their worktable. Some jokes were made about this, but it is not a joking matter. If Mr. Lemieux is a former engineer, I am a former journalist. I find that they cannot work properly that way. The committee already began looking into this some time ago, but I would like them to have a table to work on as of the Thursday session. This is a work took that would be very useful to them. I am not joking, I am serious. I am even thinking of introducing a motion to make sure they can work appropriately.

I know you're not joking, Mr. Bellavance. I've asked for it twice. This is the third time. We'll see what we can do.

Very good.
If there is no other business, the meeting is adjourned.
