Mr. Chair, even before I address the motion—we're in public—could I ask if the minister has been requested to come? Has it been attempted to try to schedule a spot for her to do the estimates?

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Ed Komarnicki

I don't think we have scheduled it, but we certainly intend to before the end of the year, if that's your question. She will be here for the estimates.

Liberal

Rodger Cuzner Liberal Cape Breton—Canso, NS

Could we try to schedule that sooner rather than later?

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Ed Komarnicki

Okay. Could you undertake to do that?

With that, Mr. McColeman, did you have a motion?
