Absolutely.
It has been asked for the vote to be recorded. My trusty clerk will call the roll.

Thank you very much.
I was hoping we would be done by eight o'clock and we came very close. It's 8:13 p.m.

Mr. Chair, for the record, I want to thank you for being so welcoming. I appreciate it very much.

The Chair Conservative Mike Wallace
My pleasure.
Before we adjourn, because there's the potential of another government bill coming to this committee but it won't get here until probably Thursday or Friday, there's no chance really of getting witnesses.
My plan, as chair, was not to have any meetings next week as we don't know what the schedule of the House will be.
Mr. Mai.

I understand that, but I think we have to work, regardless of what we think is going to happen next week. This committee is really very busy. We could see that today, making amendments when we don't even have the time to listen to the witnesses.
My suggestion would be for the justice committee to work as planned and to hold meetings next week, so we can actually move forward on some of the bills that are important for the government or for members who are presenting the bills.

We should maybe go in camera to discuss this, if we're going to get into the details. Perhaps we could hold a subcommittee meeting and discuss it now.

The Chair Conservative Mike Wallace
Are you moving to move in camera for a subcommittee meeting on the agenda?
Conservative
The Chair Conservative Mike Wallace
All those in favour of that motion?
(Motion agreed to)
We'll take a few minutes to go in camera.
Those who are on the subcommittee, please remain back, and we'll have a discussion on agenda items since we have no agenda items for next week at this particular moment.
[Proceedings continue in camera]
