Maybe I haven't read my mail, but have you sent a witness list out yet for the hearings next week?

The Chair Liberal Judy Sgro

Yes. That was done some time ago. I think we had them when we had our witnesses. That's already done for the next two weeks for those meetings.

I wanted to raise the issue regarding what happened in Arizona last week. Are there witnesses who are going to talk about safety or unforeseen—I don't know what the wording would be. In light of what happened in Arizona last week, do we have witnesses who can maybe shed some light on how to solve that issue?

5:20 p.m.

Liberal

The Chair Liberal Judy Sgro

If we share the witness list that we have put together...the clerk has been indicating to them that we wanted to go to the future. We know what the Senate report said. It was great, but we wanted to move beyond that. I'm sure they'll come prepared to respond to the accident that happened last week.

5:20 p.m.

Ron Liepert Conservative Calgary Signal Hill, AB

Thank you.

The Chair Liberal Judy Sgro

At least, I hope they will.

Regarding the witness list, then, for our infrastructure study, we need to have them by March 29, which is next Friday. Can you please submit your witness lists for that study?

Thank you all very much. The meeting is adjourned.
