There was a misunderstanding on the part of the chair, for which I apologize.
I understood that these two witnesses were appearing as part of one organization. I accorded Monsieur Vallerand an opening statement of ten minutes on behalf of that organization. I did not realize that Monsieur Drapeau was appearing in a separate capacity regarding the anti-counterfeiting accord.
My apologies for the misunderstanding, but we have afforded, in our orders of the day, only one hour for this panel. We have two motions to consider—one is yours, Mr. Angus—and we have the consideration of this draft report.
At this point, I am going to suspend the meeting for a minute--
