We should speak with him before the end of the session at the end of June.

Mr. Kramp.

Conservative

Daryl Kramp Conservative Prince Edward—Hastings, ON

I have just a thought regarding Mrs. Nash's recommendation. I don't want to create the potential for unnecessary conflict by having management on one side and labour on the other. I'd like to have them here separately.

The Chair Liberal Diane Marleau

We will not invite them at the same time.

The Chair Liberal Diane Marleau

We will not invite them here at the same time. That would not be a good thing.

So if you're in favour, we can also work in a meeting with the President of the Treasury Board. We'll leave it at that.

10:45 a.m.

Some hon. members

Agreed.

Is there any further business? No.

Madam Clerk, is there anything else you want add? No.

Thank you very much. I adjourn the meeting.
