I call the meeting back to order.
This is the second panel of witnesses we have today to deal with the ongoing study in open government.
The committee is very pleased to have, first of all, Madame Tracey Lauriault. Her resumé has been circulated. It's very extensive. She's done a lot of work on this particular issue.
We also have Mr. David Mason, executive director of Visible Government, who is also well informed on this particular issue.
On behalf of all members of the committee, I want to welcome both of you to the committee today. We're going to go until about 5:15, so we have about an hour. If you wish, I invite you to provide the committee with any open comments you have.
We'll start with you, Madame Lauriault.
