I'm happy to have a conversation after the meeting and include the clerk in it, Dr. Ellis.
Is there any further discussion on the motion to approve the study budget for the appearance of the ministers on Wednesday? I'm seeing none.
(Motion agreed to)
Thank you very much, colleagues.
I see that our witnesses are now in place.
