Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I'm normally in the committee room. Post-COVID, I rarely do it virtually, but as this is a constituency week, I am back in the great city of Cobourg. Just for clarity, how does the recognition happen? Is it the first person with their hand up? Is there preference given to those in the room, or is it just the eye of the chair? What are the rules on that, if you'd be kind enough to share?
