I think I'm going to have to cut the list off there because there is another committee that has business at eleven o'clock. We're going to carry on with the list at the next meeting.
Let me leave a little homework, since I have to be working on a letter to the minister and I do want to get the blues before I finish that letter. We are actually working on the same project that Russ Hiebert brought to us when I first became chair. As a consequence, if you look back at the transcripts, the committee said there's no way we're ever going to be able to do a full review and basically rewrite the act. It was just impossible, and as a consequence our saw-off was to consider a parallel type of approach, looking at what things we can do to at least improve the administrative capacity of the bill and maybe deal with any legislative....
So we will finish this up. I would like for those members around the table who believe we should take a more comprehensive approach and consult widely to start working and suggest to the whole committee specifically a game plan, with as much information as possible as to what they are recommending the committee do. To just use the title, “we'll do a more comprehensive review” is one thing. I think the committee should appreciate what is entailed.
So those who feel very strongly about that I think should come back to the committee with a better focus for the committee as to what actually would be asked. Ultimately, the committee is going to have to determine its work plan for the new year, and I don't want to leave that any later than we have to, because work should be done during the Christmas break.
So, please, we're at a crossroads and we need some direction. We need the input of all committee members, and I hope members will take the time to look at some of these documents. There's a lot of good information here, so we can make wise decisions when we come back to our next meeting.
This meeting is adjourned.
