Good morning everyone.
I welcome you to the 12th hearing of the Standing Committee on Government Operations and Estimates. As planned, we are going to be studying the supplementary estimates (C).
This morning we welcome representatives from the Treasury Board Secretariat: Mr. Bill Matthews, Mr. Darryl Sprecher, Ms. Marcia Santiago, Ms. Christine Walker and Ms. Grace Chennette. Thank you for being here.
You have 10 minutes to make your presentation. Afterwards, members of the committee will ask questions.
Without further ado, I now give the floor to Ms. Matthews.
