Ladies and gentlemen, we'll begin the proceedings. Because we lost a bit of time due to the vote today, we'll have a bit of a truncated meeting.
Welcome to the government operations and estimates committee. We're here today to discuss the integrity provisions for procurement and real property transactions. We're pleased to welcome as witnesses, representatives from the Department of Public Works and Government Services. Leading the delegation, I presume, is Deputy Minister Madame Michelle d'Auray.
Ms. d'Auray, welcome. I understand you have opening remarks. I'll perhaps leave it to you to introduce the rest of the guests you've brought with you today.
Let's proceed without delay.
You have the floor, Madame d'Auray.
