I'm going to direct my question to you, and you can help if need be.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"815800\" data-originallang=\"en\">I've gotten a little bit confused in terms of where we've gone on this. I think we've gone further ahead. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"815801\" data-originallang=\"en\">The motion that you were working under, as you say you are, said that it would be today \u201cand/or\u201d Thursday that Mr. Schreiber was asked to appear here. We have submitted a summons to him, prior to the December 1 date, which he hopefully received this morning in writing.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"815802\" data-originallang=\"en\">So if he arrives here on Thursday and we have our discussion with him, have we not then met the obligations of that previous motion, and all this discussion about whether we need to extend his stay or not is moot, because he is here on the dates that this committee actually passed that he be here? We actually passed that it would be either today or Thursday, and it was \u201cand/or\u201d. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"815803\" data-originallang=\"en\">Do we know that he is not showing up on Thursday?</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"815799\" data-originallang=\"en\">Merci, monsieur le pr\u00e9sident. Je vais vous poser \u00e0 vous ma question, et vous pourrez m'aider si vous le pouvez. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"815800\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je suis un peu confus face \u00e0 la voie que nous avons choisie. Je crois que nous sommes pass\u00e9s \u00e0 un autre stade. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"815801\" data-originallang=\"en\">Selon la motion qui motivait votre action, comme vous le dites, M. Schreiber serait appel\u00e9 \u00e0 compara\u00eetre aujourd'hui \u00ab et/ou \u00bb jeudi. Nous lui avons remis une assignation, avant le 1<sup>er</sup> d\u00e9cembre, qu'il a re\u00e7ue par \u00e9crit ce matin, esp\u00e9rons-le. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"815802\" data-originallang=\"en\">S'il arrive donc ici jeudi et que nous discutons avec lui, ne sommes-nous donc pas li\u00e9s par la motion pr\u00e9c\u00e9dente, puis toute la discussion \u00e0 propos de la n\u00e9cessit\u00e9 de prolonger son s\u00e9jour devient inutile, car il est l\u00e0 aux dates fix\u00e9es par le comit\u00e9 \u00e0 son sujet? La motion que nous avons adopt\u00e9e disait dans les faits que ce serait soit aujourd'hui, soit jeudi, et c'\u00e9tait \u00ab et/ou \u00bb. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"815803\" data-originallang=\"en\">Est-il confirm\u00e9 qu'il ne se pr\u00e9sentera pas jeudi?</p>"
