The Chair Conservative Lee Richardson

We usually give a week on these things, so let's say by next Tuesday.

John Cannis Liberal Scarborough Centre, ON

Mr. Chairman, I just have a point of clarification. I don't know if I'm permitted to or not, but should I find myself in the chamber debating the Canada-Colombia free trade agreement, am I allowed to discuss what just took place in our committee? Or am I restricted until such time as we get the green light?

12:20 p.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Lee Richardson

No. We were in fact going to have this meeting in camera, but because it was a public meeting, you are at liberty to go ahead at any time.

All right. I think that's all we have for today. We will reconvene on Thursday. Thank you.

The meeting is adjourned.
