Perhaps I can bring things back, because we do have a hard stop.

I think the motion is wise. The senators have their considerations as well. It allows our analyst and clerk to go away and come back with a date. We'll be meeting next week and the week after that to make sure we zero it in.

If we can get agreement around the table that we'll take that approach, which I think is a very wise and sound approach, of really getting back into this in the fall, then the direction will go out and we'll come back in the next meeting. Do we have any objections to that?

9:25 p.m.

Some hon. members

Agreed.

That being said, let the record show that it's unanimous consent on that.

That's not for the dates. They're going to go to you with the dates, and we're going to come back in the next meeting to confirm it.

That being said, I'd like to thank everybody for their participation in this evening's meeting.

I will now adjourn this meeting.
