I don't believe there's a time limit or anything. It's simply been referred to us because the statute itself requires that a House of Commons committee review the act within a certain period of time--five years. Therefore, that has been referred to this committee by the House of Commons.
We also have the main estimates.
We have the review appointment of a new Information Commissioner. I don't think that has happened. I think Mr. Reid's term ends at the end of this week and it will be up to the government to name another Information Commissioner.
Then we have a review of a proposed inquiry process for the Ethics Commissioner.
I'm in your hands, but it would seem to me that given the motion of Mr. Kenney, we'll be working on that as soon as possible, calling witnesses, etc. But it seems to me that if the House of Commons has referred something to us and there is a command in the statute that a House of Commons committee review it within a period of time, we have to pay particular attention to that. I would think it would be our next order of business, or possibly even at the same time, depending on how long it takes to get witnesses set up for the inquiry that we're going to conduct pursuant to Mr. Kenney's motion. I'm simply throwing that out for discussion.
Mr. Zed and then Mr. Martin.
