Why are there sometimes delays in the posting of Committee Evidence?
The production of a committee’s Evidence requires approximately 10 calendar days for most committee meetings, due to transcription, editing, translation and desktop publishing requirements. The production of the Minutes of Proceedings, on the other hand, normally occurs in much shorter time periods, usually within two working days. These documents are posted on the Parliament of Canada Web site as soon as final copies are available. Both items can be found by clicking on the “Meetings” section of the Web site for a particular committee.
The production of Committee Evidence requires approximately 15 working days for most committee meetings, due to the transcription, editing, translation and desktop publishing functions. The production of Minutes, on the other hand, normally occurs in much shorter time periods, usually within two working days. These documents are posted on the Parliament of Canada Web site as soon as final copies are available.
