Madam Chair, I'm wondering if as a compromise Madame Mourani would agree that we would deal with this motion first before we have witnesses at the next meeting, as opposed to delaying it. That way we are able to actually get done with it instead of--

The Chair Liberal Judy Sgro

I suggested that we would do this as the first piece of business on Thursday morning at our first meeting.

Madam Chair, it is 11 o'clock. I can very well make the same argument. I would like to discuss the motions at hand. We do not have time to discuss anything, it is 11 o'clock, Madam Chair. So I could say the same thing. We have to discuss other motions.

The Chair Liberal Judy Sgro

Unfortunately, Ms. Mourani, I have to call the meeting to an end. It is 11 o'clock. We will deal with your motion as the first order of business on Thursday morning at 9 o'clock.

Thank you all very much.

Madam Chair, on a point of order, though, can I just say, to clarify for Madame Mourani, to make things easier for all of us the next time, that as motions come in we could just be told, and then let's just deal with them in order. That makes life easier for all of us.

11 a.m.

The Chair Liberal Judy Sgro

Yes. We're going to stamp them with the time when they come in.

The meeting is adjourned.
