Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
I'm happy to advise that this is the 150th anniversary of the public accounts committee in the United Kingdom, and they're having a little soirée and celebration. Therefore, I'm moving that the chair write a letter of congratulations to the chairman of the United Kingdom House of Commons committee of public accounts on the occasion of that committee's 150th anniversary.

Before we adjourn, I just want to remind members that on Thursday we're going to spend the first hour talking about the work being done by Mr. Jack Stilborn on the follow-up on recommendations of this committee with the various departments of government. In the second hour--and I urge members to read all the materials on this issue because it is extremely important--we will deal with the Barb George situation, as to the future directions of the committee.
We will now adjourn, and I'll see you Thursday morning at 9 o'clock.
