Good afternoon, everyone.
I call this meeting to order. Welcome to meeting number 16 of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Health. Today we are meeting in public to plan our future business up until the end of June.
Today's meeting is taking place in a hybrid format pursuant to the House order of November 25, 2021. Pursuant to the directive of the Board of Internal Economy of March 10, 2022, all those attending the meeting in person must wear a mask, except for members who are at their place during proceedings. We have here today only members at their place during the proceedings.
Before we begin, Monsieur Jean-Denis Garon from the Bloc is with us today along with Mr. Thériault. I understand that he's going to be replacing Mr. Thériault until the end of June.
In the interest of maintaining a good and collaborative environment around this table, I would suggest that the committee allow Mr. Garon to receive all of the committee distributions and be granted access to the digital binder until the House sits again in September or there's a membership change that renders it unnecessary.
Do we have consensus on that?
