Can I suggest, Mr. Johns, you bring it back at the next meeting written in its proper form, so we can all understand the intent of the motion in its totality?

Yes, I'll do that.

I would suggest as well, before I adjourn, that perhaps at the next meeting we should start looking at some dates for some of the work we're proposing. We need to prioritize it and get some meetings scheduled, because if we just keep piling things on without preparing a schedule for the next couple of months, we're going to be getting nowhere. We've approved a lot of work. Eventually, hopefully, we'll get it done.

If everyone is okay with that, that's what we'll plan for Thursday's meeting, unless the minister says she's available to come on Thursday or something by chance.

Mr. Arnold.

Conservative

Mel Arnold Conservative North Okanagan—Shuswap, BC

It's a good idea, Mr. Chair, to get some of that under way. We need to look at the first priorities, so that during the break week, the clerk will be able to start lining up witnesses and the other issues that are needed to carry on with our studies.

10:40 a.m.

Liberal

The Chair Liberal Ken McDonald

I would suggest that the clerk have for us the list of motions, or work that's been adopted, including the ones that included a minimum of six days of studies, or three days or three meetings, so that we can look at the calendar and get a better feel for what we're doing and where we're going.

The meeting is adjourned.
