SUBCOMMITTEE REPORT

The Vice-Chair (Ms Margaret Harrington): I call this meeting of the standing committee on administration of justice to order.

The first item is a report from the subcommittee. I would like to read that recommendation into the record.

"For the purpose of committee hearings over the summer recess, the Chair, in consultation with the subcommittee, (and in the case of private member bills, in consultation with the sponsor of the bill) shall have the authority to make all arrangements necessary for the orderly consideration of all matters referred to the committee."

Questions or comments?

Mr Mike Cooper (Kitchener-Wilmot): I'll move that recommendation.

The Vice-Chair: Any discussion?

Mr Tim Murphy (St George-St David): Just one question. I gather this means that the arrangements are made within the context of the time frame set for the sitting of this committee. In other words, the subcommittee isn't allocated authority to decide how long we sit, just in what order we sit within that time frame.

The Vice-Chair: Yes.

Mr Murphy: I have no further discussion.

The Vice-Chair: All those in favour, please raise your hand. Any opposed? Carried.

Mr Noel Duignan (Halton North): I'll move adjournment.

The Vice-Chair: I shall adjourn this committee. The subcommittee is to stay.

The committee adjourned at 1540.
