Outside of calling the witness back to the committee to have additional questions posed to the minister, I think it would be appropriate—to the clerk and analysts—if we asked the Liberal members to talk to their colleague about providing written responses. I guess if written responses are not provided to those questions, there will be a motion from the committee to have the minister reappear.

I suspect that this is not going to go away just from today, but I encourage us to have those conversations to encourage those responses. I'm assuming that at the next opportunity we have for committee business this will be raised as a question for the committee—a motion to entertain having the witness come back to clarify his or her responses.

Barring that, seeing no other business, our next meeting is scheduled for this Thursday, March 9. The notice will be published soon.

Is there agreement to adjourn this meeting?

Some hon. members

Agreed.
