I call the meeting to order.
Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), this is a study on the subject matter of the main estimates 2019-20: votes 1, 5, 10, 15 and 20 under Department of Finance; votes 1 and 5 under Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada; and vote 1 under Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions.
Witnesses at the table include Darlene Bess, chief financial officer, and Andrew Marsland, senior assistant deputy minister, tax policy branch. Both are with the Department of Finance Canada.
There are quite a number of other officials in the room, including those responsible for some of the agencies, such as FINTRAC and OSFI. If there are any questions on these, we can bring people up to the table and move ahead.
Please go ahead, Ms. Bess.
