Natural Resources committee  No, but that's adding all four helicopters together. For the first company, it's four four-seat helicopters at $1,750 each. I've added up the price and that---

Natural Resources committee  These are the companies that are there. From the second company we can get two five-seat helicopters at $1,575, but then you've got to pay oil, fuel, and GST per chopper per hour. Then we would need one other three-seater at $995 plus oil and fuel. From the third company we'd get a six-seater, a five-seater, and another five-seater.

Natural Resources committee  Essentially we need a motion to adopt the budget, and this is the way it's worded: That the proposed budget in the amount of $24,412, for the Committee’s travel to Calgary and Fort McMurray on November 19 and 20, 2006, be adopted and that the Chair present the said budget to the Budget Subcommittee of the Liaison Committee —and I've added the following part per the conversation in the committee— and that the Clerk be authorized to modify the total amount to provide for the participation of Dennis Bevington and for the helicopter tour of the Oil Sands.

Natural Resources committee  (Motion agreed to)

Natural Resources committee  Regarding the documents, I am in touch with the department and the office of the commissioner. They are conducting the necessary research and compiling information for the committee. I will forward the documents to the committee as soon as I receive them.

Natural Resources committee  Allow me to check again tomorrow, especially with the commissioner, because department representatives are in attendance. They have heard your question and are aware of the matter. I will do a follow-up.

Natural Resources committee  Thank you, Mr. Ouellet. I can confirm that the Pembina Institute, among others, will appear again next week to discuss the issue of water. As well, after the break week, we will discuss local impacts in greater details. Witnesses will include Melissa Blake, Mike Allen, from the Fort McMurray Chamber of Commerce, and a First Nations Tribe from the area.

Natural Resources committee  Yes. The motion is simply....

Natural Resources committee  Yes.

Natural Resources committee  But the discussion will be taking place in public. So the actual document is embargoed, but the discussion is going to take place in public. That's the only caveat I wanted to let everyone know.

Natural Resources committee  Thank you, Mr. Chair. The tricky thing with what we're doing today is that the document you have in front of you, the fifth report, on the question of privilege, is considered a confidential document. That's why it was distributed to members only.

Natural Resources committee  It's approximately a three-hour flight.

Natural Resources committee  Again, a lot of the details have to be—

Natural Resources committee  The only problem I think we would have with your request, Mr. St. Amand, through the chair, would be that we've already adopted the motion to only travel the one day. We've received the House order from the whips to only travel the one day. The budget that was adopted by the Liaison Committee was for the one day.

Natural Resources committee  I just this minute received it.
