Government Operations Committee on April 21st, 2010

[Rahim Jaffer]

We were proactive. We contacted her when we heard that the Liberal Party had sent that letter to her. We sent a letter to her on behalf of both of us saying that we were willing to cooperate in any way to ensure that our names were cleared. She is now conducting a review of the material and will be getting back to us.

[Tom Lukiwski, Conservative, Regina—Lumsden—Lake Centre, SK]

Thank you.

[The Chair, Liberal, Yasmin Ratansi]

Mr. Martin's point of order requested that documents be provided within 24 hours. Does the committee agree with that?

[Some hon. members]

Agreed.

[The Chair, Liberal, Yasmin Ratansi]

Fair enough. So the clerk will send that out, and we will have a commitment from Mr. Glémaud to provide that information.

Thank you.

Mr. Guimond, do you have a point of order?

[Michel Guimond, Bloc, Montmorency—Charlevoix—Haute-Côte-Nord, QC]

I have a question. I would like to know Mr. Glémaud's reaction to what he has been asked to do, which is to submit the list.

Are you going to provide that in the next 24 hours?

[Patrick Glémaud]

Mr. Guimond, the only thing I want and the only thing I expect is to cooperate--

[The Chair, Liberal, Yasmin Ratansi]

Mr. Guimond, it's the committee's request. It's an order, and that will be fine.

[Michel Guimond, Bloc, Montmorency—Charlevoix—Haute-Côte-Nord, QC]

It seems to--

[The Chair, Liberal, Yasmin Ratansi]

He doesn't have to. It doesn't matter, because we have a point of order, we have a motion from the committee, and the committee will be requesting it.

Ladies and gentlemen of the committee, considering the time, I don't think we'll be able to get into business. The bells will ring and we will have to go to vote. So if everybody is in agreement, I'd like to break.

I thank the witnesses for being here. If there's more information we want, we will invite you again.

Thank you, Mr. Jaffer.

Thank you, Mr. Glémaud.

The committee is dismissed.
