Either way, but is the industry one over in one day? Are you talking about two one-hour panels?

The Vice-Chair Bloc Claude Bachand

Yes, two one-hour panels. I was suggesting three panels. Two out of three would be here next--

3:35 p.m.

Conservative

Laurie Hawn Conservative Edmonton Centre, AB

Okay. As we're focused on industry, why don't we do industry with two panels?

Jack Harris NDP St. John's East, NL

Yes.

Now, are we setting Thursday as well, or are we just starting with Tuesday?

The Vice-Chair Bloc Claude Bachand

3:40 p.m.

That would be fine.

Are you talking about two hours with Williams, Watt, and Manson together?

Ensemble?

The Vice-Chair Bloc Claude Bachand

Yes, next Thursday, unless you want otherwise.
