The Chair Liberal Wayne Easter

Okay, folks, let's get back to the whole panel on all those divisions.

Is there anything more that anybody wants to add?

To all the officials who are here, thank you for your presentations. Thanks again for what you do in these very difficult times. We appreciate the briefing on each of the divisions and your answering our questions.

With that, I will adjourn this meeting. We will see everyone at the next meeting, which is 2:30 p.m. Ottawa time, I believe, and 3:30 p.m. here.

The meeting is adjourned.

Thank you, all.
