Good afternoon, colleagues.
Our order of the day is to continue with the Privacy Act reform. Today we have as our witness David Flaherty, professor emeritus from the University of Western Ontario, my alma mater.
Professor Flaherty has provided us with some notes that have been circulated to you. I don't think he's going to read them to us, but he is going to highlight or bring some focus to a couple of these points and maybe have some commentary on other issues or matters to which we should give some consideration as we work through this process.
Welcome, Mr. Flaherty. I appreciate your taking the time to come to share your words of wisdom with us. The floor is yours, sir.
