My understanding is that when there is a refusal-to-work process, while the investigation is being undertaken, the employee is not put on leave. That work stops until the investigation is completed.

The Chair Liberal Bryan May

Thank you very much.

Thank you very much for appearing today and answering all of our questions.

I have a little bit of future business here.

On February 14, we will be going through the consideration of the draft report on our seniors study. Please, please, make sure you've had an opportunity to read the amazing changes that have been made by our analyst. The hope is that we go through it, not page by page, but section by section, so that we can get that process under way. That's this Wednesday. We should have the report soon. That is on February 14.

On February 21, we will be seeing witnesses again on Bill C-65, back here during the break week for two sessions, one on the 21st and again on the 22nd.

Go ahead, Mr. Blaney.

The Chair Liberal Bryan May

As soon as we have them, we'll make sure they get to everybody on the committee.

Thank you very much, everybody. As always, thank you to the analyst, the clerk, those behind us who make us audible to those who are not bilingual, and of course, all the technical people who put us on television today.

Thank you very much.

This meeting is adjourned.
