Seeing that the time is a little past 3:30 and that we do have quorum, I will welcome everyone to today's meeting of the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage. This is meeting number 20.
Today, pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), this is a study on the Indian art acquisition program, and we welcome Ms. Gray, manager of the Indian and Inuit Art Centres, in the corporate services sector.
Our meeting today might be just a little different. I understand that it's primarily a slide presentation. As we go through that, what we will do is allow questions. We will try to keep our questions short and concise as we go through the presentation. When you come to particular things on which you have questions, Ms. Gray has said she can answer those questions as we go through.
The presentation should take anywhere between and hour and an hour and 15 minutes. Depending on how we get through the presentation, if we do have 15 minutes left, I will allow one round of questioning at the end.
I would like very much to get through the whole agenda that we have here today. Does this sound satisfactory?
