It being 3:30, I will call the meeting to order and extend a welcome to everyone here. Bienvenue.

The first item of business I'd like to deal with is the discussion and approval of the minutes of the meeting of the Subcommittee on Agenda and Procedure that was held yesterday. Those minutes, together with the scheduling of upcoming committee business, have been circulated. They're in front of everyone.

There are a couple of highlights: next Monday the committee is going to deal with Public Accounts of Canada 2009. All witnesses have been confirmed. On the following Wednesday we're going to go into draft reports. On November 30, we again have draft reports. On December 2, some witnesses remain to be confirmed.

We're going to have a hearing on the most recent chapter of the Auditor General's report, “Emergency Management--Public Safety Canada”, followed by draft reports on December 7. On December 9 it will be “Strengthening Aid Effectiveness--Canadian International Development Agency”. That will take us to the Christmas break.

You have the minutes and you have the agenda. Are there any comments or discussion?

A motion for approval has been moved by Mr. Christopherson.
