Mr. Speaker, I believe you would find consent for the following motion. I move:

That notwithstanding Standing Order 106(1), the Standing Joint Committee on the Library of Parliament be permitted to meet on Thursday, November 1, 2001 at 1.00 p.m. for the purposes of Standing Order 106(2).

This is to forgo the usual 48 hour notice for a committee to meet. It is simply to establish a meeting to select the chair and vice-chair. The opposition House leader has agreed with the motion.
