We are going to call this meeting to order. I see the clock at 3:30.

We have all the parties represented now.

Welcome to the sixth meeting of the Standing Committee on Government Operations and the first meeting of this fall session of the 41st Parliament.

Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome.

It's a planning meeting. We have notices of motion regarding future business from three parties, but first we have three rather non-controversial planning issues that I'd like to raise with the committee. We can either stay in public or go in camera, as you see fit, but I don't think you'll find these in any way controversial.

With your permission, I'd like to go ahead as per the agenda, with planning of future business.
