Conservative

The Chair Conservative Joy Smith

Sorry, can I interrupt you for just a minute?

Can someone inform me as to why the bells are going off right now?

There's a vote. How long do we have?

I'm sorry to interrupt you, but I have a feeling we will be going back to Parliament very shortly. It depends.

We'll have to adjourn right away, so thank you so much to the witnesses for being here today. It's been very helpful.

My fellow colleagues, I guess we'll have to go back to Parliament.

The committee is adjourned.
