Mr. Chair, just on this point of order, it's very material what will happen this afternoon, because it has a direct bearing on what kinds of questions we may want to put to the minister, who has kindly agreed already to extend his stay, and we welcome his stay. I think it would be very important for all committee members. I'm sure the government members would want to hear if there are any material changes to this afternoon's plans and that would have a direct bearing on the questions that all members of Parliament, I am sure, would want to put to the minister.
On January 16th, 2008. See this statement in context.
