Great.

I had a number of questions about opioids, but I think that area has been very thoroughly covered, so that's it for my questions.

The Chair Liberal Bill Casey

Actually, we have exhausted our time.

I know that some of the members have other committees to attend at 8:30, so I'm going to have to call an end to it.

I'm sorry, Mr. Davies, but you're not going to get to your question. I really am sorry. I know it would be a good question.

There is one thing I want to mention.

Minister, you mentioned the pharmacare report a couple of times, and the quality of it. I would like to give credit for its quality to our analysts and researchers.

Some hon. members

Hear, hear!

The Chair Liberal Bill Casey

We had 130 presentations altogether, and I thought the report was just excellent, the way it reflected everything we heard and felt. I give them credit for that.

Again, Mr. Davies, I'm sorry, but we're just out of time. There's another committee coming in here, too. We have to vacate. I'll make it up to you somehow.

Thank you very much, Minister and officials, for coming.

The meeting is adjourned.
