Rachel Blaney NDP North Island—Powell River, BC

I haven't received it yet, so I'm just checking in to see if we can receive it. What I understand is that you've taken parts of the top and moved it to the bottom, but I want to make sure I see it.

Perhaps we can suspend for a minute if needed, Chair, while we send around that amendment.

The Chair Liberal Emmanuel Dubourg

I am therefore suspending the meeting for a while, so that the clerk can email all this to us.

Liberal

The Chair Liberal Emmanuel Dubourg

We are resuming the meeting.

Earlier, I had unanimous consent to continue for half an hour. At that point, it was 6:30 p.m. We had planned to finish at 7 p.m. and, at around 6:45 p.m., we had to suspend the meeting, because there was a vote.

I want to know if the members of the committee agree to extend the meeting by about fifteen minutes, as we had agreed.

I'm going to ask the members of the committee if I have unanimous consent to go until eight o'clock. This is the maximum time we will have resources available.

7:30 p.m.

Conservative

Blake Richards Conservative Banff—Airdrie, AB

Yes.

Liberal

The Chair Liberal Emmanuel Dubourg

That's great. We agree.

Members of the committee, I'd like to be sure. There could be a vote at eight o'clock. They can call for a vote at eight o'clock, so two minutes before eight o'clock, I will adjourn the meeting.

Do we agree on that?

7:30 p.m.

Some hon. members

Agreed.

7:40 p.m.

Liberal

The Chair Liberal Emmanuel Dubourg

We won't have any more resources available anyway.

I hear the bell ringing. Just a minute, please.

7:40 p.m.

Liberal

The Chair Liberal Emmanuel Dubourg

Since we have taken no action to suspend the meeting, and in view of the circumstances, would it please the members of the committee to adjourn the meeting?

7:40 p.m.

Some hon. members

Agreed.

7:40 p.m.

The Chair Liberal Emmanuel Dubourg

Thank you.

The meeting is adjourned.
