CONFIRMED: The prorogation will NOT impact the planned release of the report on foreign interference. It will still be submitted to the government by January 31. Here's what the folks behind the commission told me in an email just now:
"Rachel,
 
Good to speak with you this morning.  Happy New Year.
 
Here is our answer to your question:
 
The prorogation of Parliament will not have an impact on the work of the Commission, which intends to submit its report to the Government no later than January 31, 2025."
