Rob Anders Conservative Calgary West, AB

This may be an issue of interpretation or something, but I have it as “fiscal 2005-2006”, rather than “year”. Is there a difference between the English and French translation?

10:45 a.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Guy Lauzon

It should read “fiscal years”.

Yes, it would appear to be a typo in English. We will have to correct that.

Good point. Thank you.

The Clerk

We have to check whether everyone agrees with Mrs. Barbot's motion to replace section 108(2) by section 108(3)(f).

10:45 a.m.

Are we done?

According to the wording of the motion, it will have to be presented to the House, probably tomorrow or as soon as we have made it into a report.

10:50 a.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Guy Lauzon

Yes.

I would now like to inform all committee members that on Thursday, at 1 p.m., I will be at the Liaison committee to try and get the necessary support for our trip. It will then have to be submitted, and I hope we will receive permission from the House.

Very well done. Thank you.

The meeting is adjourned.
