[Recorded by Electronic Apparatus]

(1105)

[English]

The Clerk of the Committee (Mr. Jean-Marie David):
     Honourable members, I see that we have a quorum. We do need to elect a chair. Pursuant to the standing order, I'm ready to receive any motion to that effect.
    Ms. Damoff.
Ms. Pam Damoff (Oakville North—Burlington, Lib.):
    I'll nominate Mr. Calkins as chair.
The Clerk:
    It's been moved that Mr. Calkins be elected acting chair. Are there any other motions?
Mr. Blaine Calkins (Red Deer—Lacombe, CPC):
    “Acting”? I thought this was permanent.
The Clerk:
    Is it the pleasure of the committee to adopt the motion?
    Some hon. members: Agreed.
    The Clerk: I invite Mr. Calkins to take the chair.
The Acting Chair (Mr. Blaine Calkins (Red Deer—Lacombe, CPC)):
     I don't think I want to give that opportunity to Phoenix to adjust my pay one more time anyway.
    Good morning, colleagues. We have a bit of an issue here. First of all, thank you for your confidence in me to be the chair for a few minutes. As we know, there's a time allocation motion before the House right now. Our colleague, Mr. Rayes, is supposed to be here, but I think he's tied up—and I'm not saying this in any pejorative way at all. What I would recommend, colleagues, is that we just suspend the meeting until after the votes and come back after the votes; then hear from Mr. Rayes, and proceed with our committee business. Is that suitable to the committee members? Is that okay?
    Some hon. members: Agreed.
    Ms. Damoff.
Ms. Pam Damoff:
    I was just going to say excellent work, Acting Chair, as your first decision.
The Acting Chair (Mr. Blaine Calkins):
    I told you I knew what to do.
    We'll suspend until after the votes, and the committee will reconvene then.

[Translation]

    I would like the members from the NDP, the Liberal Party, and our party to agree to adjourn the meeting. Can I have a motion to that effect?
     Ms. Damoff, would you like to move the motion?

[English]

Ms. Pam Damoff:
     I move that we adjourn the meeting.

[Translation]

The Vice-Chair (Mr. Pierre Paul-Hus):
    I see that all the committee members support the motion.
    The meeting is adjourned.
