The Chair Liberal Deb Schulte

I think all of what has been said is going to be in the record. I appreciate that there's non-agreement around the table about the status of things and the answer that's appropriate, but we'll just leave it at that.

I want to thank the guests very much for sharing with us the status of what they've been doing.

I want to remind the committee that we have the minister and staff with us on Thursday.

This meeting is adjourned.
