The Chair Liberal Ron McKinnon

Thank you. We will extend that invitation as well.

I would also like the committee to consider, once we're done with these important briefings, what we're going to do as a committee going forward. We need to have a work plan. We need to consider what studies we want to do.

I've asked our analysts to prepare a précis of studies that have been done by this committee over the last two Parliaments. They will share that with the committee when it's available. That will give you some ideas of where we might want to go with our studies.

5:30 p.m.
