I'm not going to ask any particular questions, but I would like to ask you if you could ask the department to respond to any of the questions prepared by the analysts that were not answered and to submit that to us.
Thank you very much.

The Chair Conservative Chris Warkentin
I can't do that. That hasn't been a regular practice of the committee. The practice of the committee is that if you would like to ask the questions that the analysts prepared, you ask them when your turn comes around.

So, we've had time. We are now running out of time. I think it would be incumbent upon members—

That's fine, and we can look at the ones that we really want answered and we'll submit them to them.
Thank you very much.

I'll just say that we are finished the third round of questions. The best thing to do now is go to the votes, if committee members are prepared to do that. We'll do that, and then we have some committee business to take care of.

I will report this back to the House.
I want to thank Mr. Wernick and Ms. MacGowan for being here. We appreciate your willingness to stay for the remainder of the meeting and we are thankful for the questions. The were some questions that specifically asked for additional responses. If you will hasten to respond to those and get them in to the clerk, we will distribute them to committee members.
Colleagues, we will now suspend the meeting and go into camera. I just have one piece of future business to take care of, and then we will dismiss.
