We'll call the meeting to order.
This is meeting number 4 of the legislative committee on Bill C-2. The orders of the day are, pursuant to the order of reference of Thursday, April 27, 2006, Bill C-2, an act providing for conflict of interest rules, restrictions on election financing, and measures respecting administrative transparency, oversight, and accountability.
Our guest today is the Auditor General of Canada. Good afternoon, Ms. Sheila Fraser. With her is--I hope I do this right--John Wiersema, Deputy Auditor General, and Jean Ste-Marie, Assistant Auditor General and legal adviser.
Good afternoon to all three of you. Ms. Fraser, you may have some opening comments to make.
