Conservative

The Chair Conservative Leon Benoit

Let's have Mr. Menzies on this. I know we're being a little loose with procedure here, but would you like to go ahead? I see a mood here.

10:55 a.m.

Conservative

Ted Menzies Conservative Macleod, AB

Just to speed things up, we have heard from these people. We have them on record. Could we ask the researchers to bring us that information? It may actually speed things up.

10:55 a.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Leon Benoit

We'll certainly get that information as we're making up the witness list, sure.

Is that agreed, then, everyone?

10:55 a.m.

Liberal

Mark Eyking Liberal Sydney—Victoria, NS

What are we agreeing to, Mr. Chair?

10:55 a.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Leon Benoit

We are agreeing just to whatever.... No, no, no, I'm kidding; it's that we stand Mr. Julian's motion until we have some witnesses on this. We'll do those witnesses next week and the week after, I believe, in the one extra hour we have from ten o'clock to eleven o'clock, and then we come back to the motion.

Is that agreed?

10:55 a.m.

Bloc

Guy André Bloc Berthier—Maskinongé, QC

Are we discussing the motion and the amendment, Mr. Chairman?

10:55 a.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Leon Benoit

Yes, it will be the motion and the amendment, certainly.

Okay, we're out of time for this room. We apparently just have to leave.

Can we leave your second motion to the next meeting, Mr. Julian?

10:55 a.m.

NDP

Peter Julian NDP Burnaby—New Westminster, BC

Yes, we can, Mr. Chair.

10:55 a.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Leon Benoit

Thank you very much. I'll really try to make sure that we have time to discuss that.

Thank you, everyone, for your cooperation.

The meeting is adjourned.
