Madam Chair, I'm going to suggest that we stick with the agenda that was circulated to us. It was clearly defined that we would hear the two witnesses from 3:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. and then have our business portion of the meeting from 4:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. I would think that we should stick with our agenda.

I think the majority of the people do want to continue to stick to our agenda.

I want to thank the witnesses so much, but we do have to get on to committee business. Thank you so much for being with us.

I'm going to suspend for only two minutes because we are going to be short of time. The bells are going to ring very shortly.
