I call the meeting back to order.
As we continue meeting number 82 of the Standing Committee on Procedure and House Affairs in studying the question of privilege related to the member for Wellington—Halton Hills and other members, today we have with us, from the Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs David Morrison.
Deputy, welcome to the committee. We appreciate your response and your finding the time for us. We do have a bit of extra time together today. We appreciate your generosity in satisfying the wishes of the committee.
You will have up to 10 minutes for your opening comments. Then we will proceed with questions.
Welcome to the procedure and House affairs committee.
