National Defence Committee on Oct. 26th, 2010

[Laurie Hawn, Conservative, Edmonton Centre, AB]

Leave here Monday the 29th, do whatever it is the 30th, and come back the 1st.

[Claude Bachand, Bloc, Saint-Jean, QC]

Yes, I agree with that.

[The Chair, Conservative, Maxime Bernier]

Okay.

Jean-François, everything's all right for this trip?

[The Clerk of the Committee, Mr. Jean-François Lafleur]

Yes.

[The Chair, Conservative, Maxime Bernier]

Okay.

[Laurie Hawn, Conservative, Edmonton Centre, AB]

If we come back on December 1, does that violate the trip having to take place in November?

[The Clerk]

I will verify, but at first glance--

[Laurie Hawn, Conservative, Edmonton Centre, AB]

If we said 31 days in November, it's good.

[The Clerk]

If we leave in November it should be fine, but I will make sure.

[The Chair, Conservative, Maxime Bernier]

What is your next question, Jean-François?

[The Clerk]

Since we have booked for Fort Worth now, we still have Mr. Harris' wish to visit the Maritimes. Are there any preferences in terms of when we would go?

[The Chair, Conservative, Maxime Bernier]

My understanding is that the trip on search and rescue wouldn't be in November. It would more likely be in December.

That concludes the 29th meeting of the Standing Committee on National Defence.

Thank you all, and have a good day.

Meeting adjourned.
