Order, please.
We will begin this, the 51st meeting of the Standing Committee on Natural Resources.
I have a couple of housekeeping details to discuss with the committee, so I'm going to ask our witness today to bear with us just for a moment. I apologize for that. But we have a bit of a change in the upcoming schedules and I just want to get the views of the committee before making decisions on those matters.
The first one is that we were expecting a visit next Tuesday from a delegation of Mexican parliamentarians, and their trip has been delayed one day, which certainly can be accommodated with regard to their meeting with us. We had suggested we were going to get together on Tuesday for a separate meeting of about an hour and then go to dinner on Tuesday night, if you'll recall. I think we could make arrangements to incorporate a presentation into our Wednesday meeting, because we are just going to be discussing the report, in any event. And perhaps following that, if they came to the second half of the meeting, we could then go for dinner on Wednesday night, if that fits people's schedules.
The one obvious concern would be that there might be votes, but even at that, we could have them make a presentation for an hour, until 5:30, and we could go to vote and then maybe reconvene at 6:30 for dinner.
Let me leave that with you for a minute, if you want to check with your offices over your BlackBerrys or whatever during the course of the meeting, and we could maybe make a decision at the close of the meeting.
