Good afternoon, everyone.
Thank you for joining us, Mr. Lawford. You are our only witness today.
According to the agenda, we are going to spend about an hour on evidence and questions. We are going to start with a 10-minute presentation. Members will then be able to ask questions, as usual. Finally, during the second hour, we will go in camera for the debriefing on working sessions abroad.
Without further ado, I will give the floor to Mr. Lawford for 10 minutes.
