Paul, I have the letter I sent out that lists everything we talked about. When the information comes in we'll make sure it gets sent out immediately to the offices. We expect it at any time.

On May 25 you have five potential witnesses, one of which I think has already been a witness--the Chamber of Commerce. I could go back in my records.
I'm concerned about protecting that time because I want to go to clause-by-clause shortly thereafter. Will we still have a solid two hours for Bill C-300 on the 25th?
Conservative
The Chair Conservative Dean Allison
Yes. We'll be a solid two hours and I'm suggesting that it'll probably be three hours in total so we can deal with committee business.

So you're putting that on with committee business? Okay--
Conservative
The Chair Conservative Dean Allison
Depending on the witnesses, we'll either go from 10:30 to 12:30 or.... We'll make sure we have enough time to cover committee business and hear all the witnesses. If we have five witnesses, we'll have to start at 10:30 in the morning. That would be my suggestion.

Yes. Well, I don't know that you will, and a couple of them may come in from via video conference, which is always, as we can see, a bit a fun.
When will we have clause-by-clause?
Conservative
The Chair Conservative Dean Allison
That's what we'll talk about on May 25. We have to determine what we're going to do in the first part of June and we are running out of time.
Conservative
The Chair Conservative Dean Allison
So we'll see you on the 25th. The clerk will send out the notice of whether the meeting will be three hours, two and a half hours, or two hours, but it'll be at least two hours for sure.
Thank you.
The meeting is adjourned.
