Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. We'll call the meeting to order. We have a quorum.
Welcome to the 76th meeting of the Standing Committee on Government Operations and Estimates. We're just about to embark on a new study. The committee has expressed an interest in studying the issue of energy efficiency in government buildings and public works. Therefore, we've invited a broad array of witnesses to give testimony.
We want to begin by thanking our witness who is joining us by teleconference from Edmonton, Mr. Wayne Rogers, the president of Luminessence Lighting.
Mr. Rogers, welcome.
