That covers what we needed to do, and we're five minutes ahead of our plan, so we'll consider Bill C-442 dealt with and we'll report it back in due course.
Ms. May has a short comment, and then we're going to go in camera.
Go ahead.

My short comment is only to express deep gratitude to all around this table. There are some clauses that I would have loved to stay the same, but on balance this is a great step forward. I'm deeply grateful to the parliamentary secretary, the Minister, the official opposition, the chair, and all of you for dealing with it expeditiously so that we might have a chance to get it through the House before we break for summer. For that, I can't say anything but the deepest possible thank you. I restrained myself from a hallelujah chorus earlier in the proceedings this morning.

The Chair Conservative Ben Lobb
Thank you. I appreciate your restraint.
I would also like to thank all our members for the good debate and dialogue and for carrying on in a very respectful manner.
Now we're going to get into the committee business portion of our meeting. We're going to suspend for a moment to ask those who shouldn't be here to leave and then we'll get into committee business.
