We have five minutes.
Ms. Morgan, the analyst, has drawn up a work plan, which shows what will happen in weeks. On one side of the work plan there are weeks and in the middle it talks about themes, so she has divided the weeks into themes and brought together the names of people who fit into the themes from all of your lists.
It is not in both languages yet. We will ensure that this is translated and sent to you.
The list of people who will present that fit under the themes are put in one column, and we have put in brackets the parties that suggested them. So as we do a theme and as we do a week, there is a way of finding out that on a ratio of three to one...let us imagine that the people we have received so far under that date and under that theme only come from three political parties; we will allow a fourth political party to put their person in under that theme. So you will have a period of time between now and the next meeting to maybe suggest those people to fill it in. Basically what we will try to do, therefore, is to ensure that there are about four presenters on every theme in every meeting and that each one of them is well represented from the four parties here.
So the fairness will be addressed. It will show us how the themes will work. Amongst them, we believe, given what we heard today from Mr. Shillington and given what Madame Deschamps has brought forward, we should ask the department, HRSDC, to present, to bring some of the reports that Mr. Shillington has done for the department, and to give Statistics Canada the ability to come and give us some of the information that Ms. Davidson and others said they didn't have. We will also have people from Quebec come and tell us about their self-employed schemes in Quebec. So we will have a theme that is based on government departmental representation that will give us data, give us facts, etc.
Now you would look at this and decide whether you believe there is another department that we have missed. Let us know about that; we will take steps to do that. Then we need to set aside an extra day for the round table on the academics alone. We haven't fit a time for that, so we need to ask you to set aside a day for that, and to look at the number of people who were listed here as academics at the round table and find that balance on the ratio we talked about, to have all parties have people come in to present at that round table.
So you will see it's an excellent job by Ms. Morgan. It deals with fairness, it deals with themes, it deals with timelines, and it allows everyone to have input, to get their party's person on that theme to come in. So we will send it to you when it is translated.
Ms. Hoeppner.
