Procedure and House Affairs committee  I would have to check back on the specific date that I sent them. They were sent out on the day immediately following the day this committee adopted the steering committee report to invite all of those additional witnesses.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  In all honesty, there's no real timeline. It varies tremendously from one witness to another. Sometimes you hear back from them the day you send the invitation out. Other times it might take several days or even longer.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  Yes, Madam Chair. We'll check to see how we've lost interpretation.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  Madam Chair, the question is on whether the committee should be adjourned. (Motion negatived: nays 6; yeas 5)

Procedure and House Affairs committee  Madam Chair and Mr. Long, I'm going to have an IT ambassador reach out to Mr. Long to see what the issue might be, so that we can try to get a higher volume for him so that he can hear more clearly.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  Madam Chair, that problem should have been addressed. Depending on the version of Zoom that members are working on, sometimes it can still be an issue. The latest versions of Zoom should have resolved that, but if you have on your computer a prior version of Zoom, the issue may still occur and it might require members to toggle back and forth between the English and the French.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  It is May. I'll find the precise date for you and pass it on to the committee.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  That will do it. Thanks.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  I've just sent it out.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  We'll proceed with the election of the first vice-chair. Pursuant to Standing Order 106(2), the first vice-chair must be a member of the official opposition. I'm now prepared to receive motions for the first vice-chair. Ms. Vecchio.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  It has been moved by Karen Vecchio that John Nater be elected as first vice-chair of the committee. (Motion agreed to) Mr. John Nater is duly elected first vice-chair of the committee. Congratulations, Mr. Nater.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  Madam Chair, I did note Ms. Vecchio's hand rising. According to my list, I think it would be Ms. Vecchio next.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  I was just going to indicate that the motion that has been moved would still be up for consideration at the next full meeting of the committee. The meeting on Monday night isn't of the full committee. It's the subcommittee. If there is no resolution at the subcommittee, the issue can always be brought back and the discussion picked up again at the next full committee meeting, or whenever the committee would like to do it.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  Madam Chair, we'll look into the problem. It's not quite clear at this moment. Please stand by.

Procedure and House Affairs committee  Madam Chair, if you suspend briefly, we'll try to figure out what the problem is.
