We are the Subcommittee on International Human Rights of the Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs and International Development. This is our 15th meeting. It is May 26, 2008.
We were scheduled to meet from noon until 1 p.m. We're starting 15 minutes late, largely, of course, due to the fact that we had an unusual change of circumstances that occurred after this meeting had already been scheduled, with the speech of the President of the Ukraine. This imposes some limits on us that would make it difficult to have a full round of questioning for our witnesses, so I'm wondering if there is a consensus that we extend this meeting to a quarter past one in order to give a full hour, as we would have had.
