We had a motion we wanted to put forward around the TRC and being able to bring them in. I don't know if people have seen the motion. It is:

That the Committee undertake a study of the possible extension of the mandate of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC), which currently expires on July 1, 2014, to fulfill its mandate as set out in Schedule N of the Indian Residential Schools Settlement Agreement; and that it report its findings to the House of Commons no later than Monday, December 2, 2013.
