So if it is a notice of motion, we could vote on it on Tuesday, when we are back. In any event, we already have something on the schedule that Tuesday, and we can dispose of it quickly. I would like to be able to look more closely at the names and the perspective, but in general, I agree with the motion.

Okay, we're agreed to that.

We will have to meet on the 30th, if we can, because there is a lot of material the steering committee needs to look at. We could potentially meet at one o'clock until two o'clock on Monday. We're tied up that afternoon with witnesses and with the minister. We have officials for an hour that night, and then we have the minister's estimates in the House.

We have a fairly tight agenda on the 30th and the 31st, but in order to get witnesses for further on we'll need to have a steering committee meeting on the 30th at around one o'clock or so. A notice will come out.

Seeing no further business, the meeting is adjourned.
