Good morning again, ladies and gentlemen. We'll reconvene our meeting.
We'll welcome our next panel, two distinguished officers of Parliament.
From the Office of the Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner, we have Ethics Commissioner Mary Dawson.
Welcome, Ms. Dawson.
From the Office of the Information Commissioner of Canada, we don't have the commissioner herself but we welcome representatives Emily McCarthy and Layla Michaud.
We'll do the same as we did with the first two representatives in our first panel. We'll invite five- or ten-minute opening remarks, and there will be time for one full round of questioning.
I advise members that we're going to conclude a few minutes early so that we can do the votes on the estimates and return them to Parliament after having been voted on at the committee. As well, we'd like time to deal with a motion by Mr. Scott Andrews. I would perhaps ask people to be very concise with their questioning to keep to the prescribed limit of the questions.
Having said that, we will go in order that appears on the agenda. We will invite Ms. Mary Dawson, the Ethics Commissioner, to please make her opening remarks.
Welcome, Ms. Dawson.
