I call this meeting to order. This is meeting number nine of the Standing Committee on Finance.
I want to welcome our guests, who are appearing today pursuant to Standing Order 83.1 on our pre-budget consultations 2013.
We have one motion to deal with as a committee. I understand we are going to deal with it very quickly. It's a motion by Mr. Hoback.
Colleagues, we dealt with this in the last session. You should have it in front of you.
I'm going to go to Mr. Hoback very briefly, and then to Ms. Nash.
Mr. Hoback, please.
