Just for the record, Mr. Chair, these are predictable, scheduled things. This happens every year. While the dates might be somewhat flexible due to the parliamentary process, it should come as no surprise to this committee or to the minister that a request to appear to discuss the supplementary estimates or the main estimates ought to be expected. My hope is that the meeting that we already have the minister confirmed for isn't to discuss the main estimates or the supplementary estimates, but to discuss the issues for which she was invited to the committee and that we would have a further opportunity to discuss the estimates with the minister prior to the date that we need to, whatever it happens to be.
