Okay, it's a recorded vote.
(Motion agreed to: yeas 5; nays 4 [See Minutes of Proceedings])
The first report is adopted and the calendar will be updated, colleagues.
I want to quickly move to our next set of witnesses.
I thank you so much for your patience. We did have to deal with that. We were supposed to deal with it before the break, but we had a very unfortunate passing of a friend and colleague.
Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), a study of the economic and fiscal outlook, we are very pleased to welcome the Parliamentary Budget Officer, Mr. Jean-Denis Fréchette, and a number of colleagues from the Library of Parliament.
Welcome to this committee.
Mr. Fréchette, you'll have an opening statement. Perhaps I could ask you to introduce your colleagues at that time. We will then have questions from all the members.
