I call this meeting to order. This is the seventh meeting of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Environment and Sustainable Development.
I can assure members that the sound test with the witnesses has been done, so we're all set for our liftoff here.
I think everyone who is here as a witness has probably been a witness before at this committee or other committees during the hybrid format, so you all know the protocols. Please keep your microphones on mute when not speaking so we can avoid ambient noise, and so on.
Today we have two panels of one hour each.
We have with us, from 6:30 to 7:30, the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission represented by Rumina Velshi, president and CEO; Ramzi Jammal, executive vice-president and chief regulatory operations officer; and Kavita Murthy, director general, nuclear cycle and facilities regulation.
From the Department of Natural Resources, we have Mollie Johnson, assistant deputy minister, low carbon energy sector; Jim Delaney, director, uranium and radioactive waste division; and Justin Hannah, director, nuclear energy division.
From each group we'll have an opening statement of three minutes.
Ms. Velshi, I imagine you'll be doing the opening statement. Go ahead, please.
