COMMITTEE BUSINESS

The Chair (Mr. Norm Miller): I’d like to call the committee to order. Did we have an NDP motion to discuss this morning? Ms. Gélinas.

M^me France Gélinas: Actually, this motion has brought forward a lot of good ideas from a lot of people, and in order to do it justice, what I’m going to do today is I’m going to withdraw my motion. We will work behind the scenes with a whole bunch of people interested in the energy sector to bring forward, at a time yet to be announced, a better-crafted motion. So all I’m doing this morning is I’m withdrawing this.

The Chair (Mr. Norm Miller): You haven’t technically moved the motion yet—

M^me France Gélinas: Oh, even better.

The Chair (Mr. Norm Miller): —so you don’t have to withdraw it.

M^me France Gélinas: Do I have to move it to remove it?

The Chair (Mr. Norm Miller): No, you don’t have to do that.

M^me France Gélinas: Out it is.

The Chair (Mr. Norm Miller): Then we’ll go in camera and go to Ornge.

The committee continued in closed session at 0906.
