Order, please.
Good afternoon everyone and welcome to the committee's 66th meeting. As planned, we are continuing our study of the Conflict of Interest Act.
Today, we are pleased to welcome Mr. Giorno and Ms. Froc, representing the Canadian Bar Association. Mr. Dodek, from the University of Ottawa, was also supposed to join us, but he will not be here today. We will have an opportunity to hear from him at another meeting. We are also pleased to welcome Mr. Boisvert, who is a professor at the École nationale d'administration publique.
As usual, we will begin with presentations. Each witness will have 10 minutes. We will then move to the question and answer period.
Without further ado, I will yield the floor to Mr. Giorno, from the Canadian Bar Association. You have 10 minutes.
