No. The aerial readiness was going to go to the end of June, and then we were going to shift to something else that we were going to decide on leading into that.

What he's trying to do is just incorporate all this into the rest of the study.

The Chair Liberal Stephen Fuhr
As you've added to our original statement, the door is still open to do this. As it's written, it says that the study will “focus on the following”. It doesn't say “may”, but is very direct language. It says those seven are great things and, from what I'm hearing over here, we'll vote on it, but the door is still open to go where you want to go.

All in favour of the motion as moved by Mr. Bezan. All opposed.
It looks as if it's defeated.

The Clerk of the Committee Mr. Philippe Grenier-Michaud
Yes, we could.
We need to proceed to the recorded vote. It won't take long. Please answer yea or nay when I call your name.
