The Chair Conservative Dean Allison

Now we're going to move back to the amendment, with a subamendment. Was that 2003, 2004, 2005? Once again, that would be reported as well. Once again we have added “no later than September 2007”.

(Amendment agreed to) [See Minutes of Proceedings]

The Chair Conservative Dean Allison

I will now move to the motion as amended. So the information will be reported back no later than June 12, and any of this additional information no later than September 2007.

So that is done.

I am going to suggest, in the interests of time--we have been here two and a half hours--that we adjourn the meeting for today and we look at Bill C-284 on Tuesday. Employability will always be there as a backup, so if it takes us an hour to move through Bill C-284, great. If it takes us two hours, that won't jeopardize individuals who are coming as a result.

Is that okay with the committee?

11:30 a.m.

Some hon. members

Agreed.

The meeting is adjourned.
