Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
I apologize to Madame Lavallée and to our witnesses for doing this at this time. I'm simply worried that we're about to run out of time at this meeting.
My understanding is that the subcommittee that deals with studying the agenda for this committee has made arrangements to deal with the matters of the motion that had come before this committee and was voted on relating to Afghanistan and so on. I assume that involves summoning witnesses as early as Thursday, and I am concerned that we won't have a chance to discuss this prior to that actually taking place. That would obviously be problematic from the point of view of ensuring that the committee has reached a consensus with regard to who we're summoning.
I'm hoping we can all find a way of leaving ourselves enough time to deal with that today.
