Thank you.
I want to welcome everyone to this committee. It's a very interesting committee. It's a very important committee. A lot of you may be aware that for the last five years I've had the pleasure and privilege of chairing the public accounts committee. Although I guess by now I have an understanding of the public accounts, I don't know that much, nor do I pretend to know that much, about access to information or ethics or protection of privacy. So I'll certainly need your help and guidance as we move along here.
What I'd like to do after this meeting is to have a meeting of the steering committee, just to start talking about the future business of the committee. I'd like all members of the steering committee to remain after that.
Also, I should point out that the way I'd like to conduct it--and this is similar to the way we did it in public accounts, and I found it worked very well--is that the steering committee would meet weekly, preferably on the Monday or Tuesday of each week, with the meetings lasting no longer than one hour, in camera, of course, so that we can sort out if there are any differences of opinions or views. Hopefully we can sort those out at the steering committee. That's everything I have to say. I do hope everything works well with the committee, and I believe it will.
Before we adjourn, Mr. Siksay, you have a motion you want to present on notice, which is fine. I'll give you the floor to do that and then we'll adjourn.
