We'll talk about that and discuss that as part of the work plan on Wednesday. I have one last point to bring up.
There is a dissenting opinion from the Conservative Party, which missed the deadline. We had set those deadlines because we weren't going to be around. I need consent from the committee to make sure it's okay to go with the report we're going to table on Wednesday. It's a dissenting report. We had some arbitrary deadlines for those reports. This came in after the deadline, so the clerk said we need to get permission from the committee to suggest whether or not we could receive this dissenting report from the employability study. Sorry, I should have clarified that. This dissenting report came in after the deadline. Is there a problem with that? Could that be tabled, with the other dissenting reports?

I think it's terribly sloppy, Mr. Chair. But in deference to my friends, their voices should be heard.

I don't believe we have any other business at this point in time. There will be a subcommittee meeting scheduled for Wednesday, and then on Thursday we will together work on a work plan for poverty, etc., as we move forward over the next few months.
With that, the meeting is adjourned.
