Mr. Chair, on the whole consideration of the overall agenda of the committee, I want to stress that the agenda and planning committee does include representatives of all parties. We did have a thorough discussion of the fall agenda in light of the priorities that the committee established. We only planned half the fall and we're going to have another meeting to plan the remainder of the fall. So anything that's missing from the agenda we'd certainly consider including in that. The parliamentary secretary and I have already discussed some things that he believes were missing and should be included and I agree with him on that.
I also want to say, Mr. Chair, that it did happen quickly at the last meeting. However, no one forced anyone on this committee to vote for that motion, and the motion did pass the committee. I want to hold the committee to the decision that they made. I believe that motion did pass. We all sometimes worry about how quickly things happen and how things develop with the committee, but in that case it was clearly on the agenda; it was clearly moved; there was a vote taken; and it did pass. I think it's a good beginning on the priorities that were established by the committee. I think we should move forward with that and address some of the concerns that are coming up, as we plan the remainder of our work for the fall.
