Let's get started, please. This is the meeting of the Standing Committee on Procedure and House Affairs. We are meeting in public today with video recording.
We have with us today Mr. Rob Walsh, former Law Clerk of Parliament. Mr. Walsh, I haven't been with you in a long time. It's great to have you back before our committee.
Mr. Gregory Thomas is also here today.
We'll give you each a chance for an opening statement.
Mr. Walsh, would you like to go first, and then we'll ask questions after that?
