The Chair Liberal MaryAnn Mihychuk

It's one of the negative parts of my job, but committee business needs to wrap up.

We offer our sincere thanks for participating and we wish you all the best. We must close this session at this time.

For members here, is it the will of the committee to encourage presenters on Thursday to call in rather than come in person in case there may be a change in the House?

Cathy.

Absolutely, Madam Chair. I think our motion was that if the House had risen, we wouldn't be meeting.

Maybe we should start a little later though for those who are, once again, three hours behind.

If we do not adjourn then we'll make it a teleconference call and start a little bit later. I hear the wishes of the committee.

Thank you.

The meeting is adjourned.
