Committee Researcher

Mary Hurley

Thank you very much.

This is unexpected. I don't have a speech, so I'll just tell you that it's been a privilege to work with parliamentarians over the past 16 years—14 years on this committee. I think the issues and the concerns that come before this committee are among the most important in the country. They're complex. I am very gratified to think that I've been able to be of assistance to parliamentarians when they deal with them.

I'm sure that you're going to continue to benefit from the same assistance as you move forward. I find it kind of ironic that my very last meeting is the meeting prior to your commencing study of a piece of legislation that was the last piece of legislation I worked on. I wish you all the best in your endeavours as you deal with issues on this committee. They're important. They need your careful attention. I am sure you'll give it.

Thank you very, very much.

[Applause]
