Is there unanimous consent to Mr. van Koeverden's request? I think so.

I'll adjourn the meeting.

Thank you, witnesses. Thank you for being here, not only today but before.

Mr. Chair, I have a point of order before you adjourn.

Yes.

I don't want to be long here. I appreciate that we got clarification from the clerk regarding the previous motion from the spring regarding the redacted and unredacted documents on the accelerator fund. We have times available. I have not yet made it over there.

I would like to clarify, because the language of it didn't seem clear to me if in fact there were two versions. Looking back at the motion we passed at that time, it was very clear that the committee had passed a motion—

The Chair Liberal Francis Scarpaleggia

Yes.

6:25 p.m.

Conservative

—asking for complete and unredacted signed contributions agreements, fully unredacted, as well as five redacted public versions.

I guess my question to the chair is on whether you know or you can get guidance from—

Lloyd Longfield Liberal Guelph, ON

I move that we adjourn.

The Chair Liberal Francis Scarpaleggia

Sorry. I can't—

6:25 p.m.

Conservative

Branden Leslie Conservative Portage—Lisgar, MB

Perhaps we could get clarity on it, Mr. Chair. In your view, has the motion as passed by this committee been honoured by Industry Canada?

The Chair Liberal Francis Scarpaleggia

It's a complicated question. I haven't seen the documents.

An hon. member

It's not for right now.

The Chair Liberal Francis Scarpaleggia

I'm going to adjourn. We can discuss this maybe on the sidelines.

6:25 p.m.

Conservative

Branden Leslie Conservative Portage—Lisgar, MB

Can we have it in public at the next meeting, then?

The Chair Liberal Francis Scarpaleggia

Let me look. I'll have to speak to the clerk about the documents. I haven't seen them.

6:25 p.m.

Conservative

Branden Leslie Conservative Portage—Lisgar, MB

I appreciate that.

The Chair Liberal Francis Scarpaleggia

For now, I'm going to adjourn the meeting.
