I am advised that that is something the Speaker deals with directly once it is reported, and you deal with him, as you do with the chair in this committee.
(Clauses 3 to 6 inclusive agreed to)
Shall clause 1, the short title, carry?

Mr. Chair, did I hear right? Which clauses did you group? Did you group all the clauses?
Conservative
Brian Jean Conservative Fort McMurray—Athabasca, AB
Excellent. I apologize. I thought it was just to clause 5.

The Chair Conservative Merv Tweed
That's good. That's it.
With that, I'll thank committee members for their time today.
And I thank our guests. You are certainly welcome to go on to the other parts of your day. I'm sure you have a busy day. Thank you very much.
Monsieur Guimond.

Mr. Chair, I would like to know what the plans are for next week. We have discussed the program, but I am not sure whether we have discussed the work we are going to do next Tuesday and Thursday. I would like to know if we have any extra meetings, just in case that information slipped by me.
Conservative
The Chair Conservative Merv Tweed
Currently on the agenda for Tuesday, December 14, we have ACPPA, with Air Canada representatives coming. That's the only thing we have confirmed for next week, and that would be on the Tuesday meeting.

That is concerning the maintenance....

Mr. Chair, has the clerk tried to invite…
Has the list of witnesses we were expecting to hear from been drawn up?
Bloc
Michel Guimond Bloc Montmorency—Charlevoix—Haute-Côte-Nord, QC
Yes? Who are the other scheduled witnesses that we have not heard from yet?
Conservative
The Chair Conservative Merv Tweed
That was the list that people were presented with, those we've invited, and these are the ones who have confirmed so far in the schedule. I'll check to see whether there's anybody we've missed.
We haven't gone to the individuals at that level, at this point; we've just been dealing with Transport, with associations, and with Air Canada.
My thinking was, if the committee so chooses, in the new year we could bring individuals in, if we want to continue to hear people.
Bloc
Michel Guimond Bloc Montmorency—Charlevoix—Haute-Côte-Nord, QC
I do not remember any of that. I probably missed that part of the meeting. I missed the end of the meeting, but I do not recall you asking us to suggest witnesses for the study on the Air Canada Public Participation Act.
Conservative
The Chair Conservative Merv Tweed
The list we have, for clarification, is dealing with noise. We don't have an individual list in respect of the issue with maintenance contracts.
Michel Guimond Bloc Montmorency—Charlevoix—Haute-Côte-Nord, QC
Oh, fine.
So, are you inviting us to provide you with a list of witnesses on the subject of keeping the maintenance facilities in Montreal, Mississauga and Winnipeg?
Have you asked us for that?
