It's electronic voting, so it's voting in the chamber. Do they all require you to be physically in the chamber? To me that's a great sticking point, because the idea is you can vote from your office.

The Chair Liberal Larry Bagnell
I don't want to discuss it now, but if there's an interest in discussing it, and if people come back to me, then I'll bring it forward again.

Yes, on the other item, we had the acting CEO, who is being tapped to be the permanent CEO.

Blake Richards Conservative Banff—Airdrie, AB
That was earlier in the week here. During that meeting I moved a motion, because I think there was some information about the process that was sort of important to PROC's examination of that matter.
I don't remember what the deadline is, but I think it's a fairly short deadline in terms of our reporting back our thoughts on that. Do you know what the deadline would be on that?
12:25 p.m.
The Clerk of the Committee Mr. Andrew Lauzon
It would be 30 calendar days, which would bring us to June 7.

Blake Richards Conservative Banff—Airdrie, AB
We would have to do that fairly quickly, and I think that it's important to deal with the motion and have that scheduled as well. We need to schedule some time for that discussion and potential witnesses.

Scott Reid Conservative Lanark—Frontenac—Kingston, ON
Schedule the witness, and by that, you mean the minister.

About the process, which we weren't able to get answers on to our questions.
12:25 p.m.
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Larry Bagnell
Okay, we're open for discussion now on that and, obviously, we've had a bill referred to us, so we can discuss that.
Yes.

The Chair Liberal Larry Bagnell
No, I just said we'll discuss the schedule, which includes your motion.
12:25 p.m.

Blake Richards Conservative Banff—Airdrie, AB
If that's an opportunity, I'd like the floor then on that at this point of time to address my motion. Is that in order?
12:25 p.m.
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Larry Bagnell
Right now we were just discussing when to put your motion in and when to have the discussion.

If I understand the various pieces at play, we have the briefing next Tuesday from 11:00 until 12:00. The following Thursday is an hour for the indigenous language report. Is that right?
12:25 p.m.
NDP
Nathan Cullen NDP Skeena—Bulkley Valley, BC
We have this notice of motion from Mr. Richards, and we have the second Thursday, the seventh, for the second hour for what we suggested this morning, the indigenous language report and Bill C-76. Have I got all of the pieces right?
