Certainly. I'd make it simple, but I'd be contradicting myself, because it doesn't have unanimous consent and I don't have it written in bilingual form.

Then we'll wait.

I don't think it's that complicated. All I'm suggesting is that the staff contact each of the members, or that each member send a note to the clerk with their priorities on what they would like to see studied by the committee. That would give the chair and the vice-chairs a chance to work together to see if they have something in common that can be put before the committee.

I think this discussion is healthy, though, because even as Monsieur Thibault points out, we may not want to consider motions today since we're still waiting on Mrs. Hinton's. But at least it gives us a chance to sense where everybody is on the issues, and maybe gives us some things for consideration at the next meeting.

Mr. Stoffer, are you good to go?

All right then. I'll call the meeting adjourned until we have our next one on Tuesday.
