Yes, Mr. Chair. Thank you.
Over the course of the next meeting, and perhaps two meetings, we are looking forward to discussing direction. We have some unfinished business from the previous committee in the last session that we may consider. The conflict of interest report is still outstanding; we haven't finished it. I will be bringing forward a motion to ask that we have a one-day briefing so that new members are brought up to speed before we take any more steps on it—so that we're all feeling that we fully understand it.
I understand from the last session that we had discussed the issue of a data breach. Are my colleagues and the Conservatives still interested in going forward with that? We're certainly more than willing to follow through, because those are the commitments we made last spring.
I wanted to bring to the attention of my new colleagues, especially the new members on the committee, that we have the four officers of Parliament who report to our committees, and I think it would be good to have each of them come, especially our Privacy Commissioner, who is leaving. So I would think one of our top orders of business would be to bring the Privacy Commissioner to give her final report before she leaves, because she's done excellent work for us.
I have a few things that I'd like to put on our agenda that we would like to discuss.
That, pursuant to Standing Order 108(3)(h)(iv), the Standing Committee on Access to Information, Privacy and Ethics invite the Privacy Commissioner to present and explain the content of her 2012-2013 annual report on the Privacy Act before November 29, 2013.
We will be bringing that forward. I will pass it over to be looked at.
We would also be asking that the committee request a two-day briefing from the Privacy Commissioner and CRA in relation to the data breaches at the Canada Revenue Agency and the department's ability to track and respond to breaches. I think this is something our committee should certainly be looking at.
As well, pursuant to Standing Order 108(3)(h)(iv), this one is that this committee study the Privacy Commissioner's audit report of the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada, tabled on October 25, 2013.
These are housekeeping issues that I think we need to get on our agenda. I'm certainly going to be looking forward to discussing it with my colleagues.
