SUBCOMMITTEE REPORT

The Acting Chair (Mr Rosario Marchese): I call the meeting to order. We have a report from the subcommittee:

"Your subcommittee considered, on Tuesday 20 July 1993, the selection of intended appointees for committee review."

All of you have had an opportunity to see those lists. Any questions or discussions?

Ms Margaret H. Harrington (Niagara Falls): Just a question: When will these people be before us? Over the next three or four months?

Mr John C. Cleary (Cornwall): It says on there.

The Acting Chair: During the recess. We'll just have to set up the times whenever it will be convenient for those meetings.

Ms Harrington: I see.

The Acting Chair: I would assume it's the beginning of the third week of August.

Ms Harrington: It looks like a lot of people.

The Acting Chair: On or before September 2.

Ms Harrington: That means we will obviously be meeting throughout the month of August to get through this number.

Clerk of the Committee (Ms Lynn Mellor): We normally would do about eight on a given day, so we usually sit for two days. We schedule sometimes six or seven, sometimes eight. It's difficult to get people in during that time because they're away on vacation.

If the committee doesn't have an opportunity to meet, if the House leaders don't give them authority to sit for two days during the month of August, these will expire on September 2 and they'll go ahead automatically and be appointed at that time.

Ms Harrington: Thank you for that information.

Mr David Turnbull (York Mills): I want to clarify: Is this a subcommittee meeting?

The Acting Chair: Yes. No, I'm sorry. This is the committee to deal with the subcommittee report which is in front of you, I think. Do you need a moment to look at the list?

Mr Turnbull: No, I've looked at it.

The Acting Chair: Any other questions on this?

All in favour of approving the subcommittee report?

Mr Alvin Curling (Scarborough North): That's pretty fast.

The Acting Chair: Any opposed? Carried unanimously. Any other matters? That was the only issue to be dealt with. The meeting is adjourned.

The committee adjourned at 1139.
