Conservative

The Chair Conservative Kevin Sorenson

Yes, from the subcommittee.

We will invite Khadr's lawyers, and he has lots of them. And we would want to make certain....

Can I ask the committee whether we can go ahead with China. I think that's what we were trying to get done here.

5:20 p.m.

Liberal

Bernard Patry Liberal Pierrefonds—Dollard, QC

Either one for me is okay.

But I think the motion was really for the lawyer of Mr. Khadr. If the only date he can.... We can decide on this coming Thursday, just to be sure they're going to come.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Kevin Sorenson

Yes. Our clerk hasn't heard anything about who's available on what days; we haven't contacted them.

5:20 p.m.

Liberal

Bernard Patry Liberal Pierrefonds—Dollard, QC

That's because we didn't have the motion first. We can just talk with them.

But we agree--either one is okay for us.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Kevin Sorenson

All right, so we'll talk then. And I'll have our clerk check on those.

Thank you.

The meeting is adjourned.
