I'm merely speaking to the matters you've raised, Mr. Chair.
I second the concern of my colleague. I don't think it's extreme to ask for at least two days to review the report and then we can be efficient. We may well come to agreement more quickly and just look at the issues of contention. We can start right away with “We're generally supportive of the report, but here are the issues”. I have many things already booked on Monday, so I'm not sure I have sufficient time to review it.
I'm also asking what has happened to the brief report we asked for on rare earth, and if we could have some kind of guidance on what the next study might be. For example, I know that our Liberal colleague has been waiting for his review of propane. We would be fully supportive of that. If we could gear up for that on Tuesday, that would be terrific.
That might be an option. Who knows? We may actually be able to get through the report at the Thursday meeting.
Also, I am pleased that we have somebody who has studied Ukraine, but I'm just wondering if we could have clarification on whether or not we're able to have anybody representing the Government of Ukraine.
