We do have a motion before the committee.
Mr. Vice-Chair, do you wish to continue with this motion?

James Bezan Conservative Selkirk—Interlake—Eastman, MB
Yes, I think we should so that this doesn't continue to happen, honestly. I think we should insist upon having the interpreters in the room with us to provide that live interpretation to ensure that there's nothing lost in translation.

Is there further debate?
(Motion agreed to)
Now that we have the floor, let's deal with the budget, because we do have a little bit of time.
Is it agreed that the proposed budget in the amount of $500 for the study of the supplementary estimates (C) be adopted?

There is a request for an informal meeting on May 26 with the European Parliament security and defence committee. There are six to 10 members of the European Parliament. It's dated, I believe, for May 26. I'm bringing to your attention that the EU Parliament is coming, and they wish to have an audience with us. Is everyone in favour of proceeding?
Ms. Sherry Romanado, you have the floor.

I'm assuming that May 26 is a Tuesday, so it wouldn't be during committee time. Is that correct? I just want to make sure that it's not.
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Charles Sousa
Yes. The clerk's office will make arrangements.
Is that a sole...or is that in partnership?
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Charles Sousa
It's with just our committee members. Okay. We'll proceed with that.
We're going to continue with the francophone and indigenous CAF member study on April 20 and April 22, for your reference. On April 27, Mr. Guzman is appearing before this committee—we hope. That's been rescheduled for April 27. On DND and the CAF contaminated sites, we're aiming for April 29 on that issue. On May 4, it will be the last meeting of the francophone and indigenous CAF study—just so people are aware.
I know that in Monday's discussion, when we had to cancel, Mr. Guzman agreed to come and he apologizes for having to cancel at that particular time.
Now, to go back—
Liberal
The Chair Liberal Charles Sousa
April 27 is the date that he's coming back. That is correct according to the clerk and our discussions.
To go back to the adjournment, is the committee in agreement to adjourn the meeting?
