Thank you, Monsieur Blais.
Actually I remember the discussion around the Boston seafood show, but I don't remember it being an official part of the committee's business that we were looking at that proposal. I thought we were looking at it more from the standpoint that possibly some members of the committee might travel with the minister's delegation that would be going to the Boston seafood show, which happens on an annual basis.
The clerk has informed me that in order for a delegation from the committee to attend the Boston seafood show, the committee would have to go through the process of getting approval from the House and obviously approval for the costs from the House as well.
I guess what I am saying is basically we don't have enough time to follow that process. I'm not sure what the minister's plans are on this. Possibly we could make contact with the minister's office, and if there are members of the committee who are interested in attending with the minister, we could make the minister's office aware of that, and hopefully that would work.
Mr. MacAulay.
