Diane Marleau at the Government Operations and Estimates Committee

I'm going to call the meeting to order. This morning we have a witness to speak to us about order in council appointments: Mr. Jeremy DeBeer.

I'm sorry we're late starting, but there have been delays with the green buses and delays just about everywhere else, and as you were telling us, you were delayed yourself.

What we normally do here is we hear from the witness. You can speak for five to ten minutes--it's up to you--and then we open it up to questions.

So perhaps you will proceed.
