The Chair Liberal Larry Bagnell

I'm sorry. Are you talking about the report with all the names or just the fact that we're letting the whips go ahead...?

12:55 p.m.

Blake Richards Conservative Banff—Airdrie, AB

It's the report with the names.

12:55 p.m.

Whenever the parties have submitted all their names, we can do it as quickly as possible, and we will.

No.

Does the report have to be tabled?

12:55 p.m.

Liberal

The Chair Liberal Larry Bagnell

No, not the permission. It's just the big report with all the names.

1 p.m.

Conservative

Blake Richards Conservative Banff—Airdrie, AB

Okay. Thanks.

1 p.m.

Liberal

The Chair Liberal Larry Bagnell

I would like to ask for a clarification.

Does that motion have to be unanimous in the House to support the one where we're reporting back what the whips are proposing for all the committees?

The clerk indicates that the practice is that the chair presents that report and asks the House to adopt the report.

Is there any further business? We're right on time in this very productive meeting.

Mr. Graham.

1 p.m.

Liberal

David Graham Liberal Laurentides—Labelle, QC

Is it possible for the clerks and the analysts to have name tags as well for future meetings?

1 p.m.

The Chair Liberal Larry Bagnell

Could you have name tags for the clerk and the analysts, Madam Clerk?

1 p.m.

NDP

They have to remain anonymous.

1 p.m.

Oh, oh!

1 p.m.

The Chair Liberal Larry Bagnell

That's a good point, Mr. Graham. I think we can arrange that.

Thanks, all of you.

The meeting is adjourned.
