Order, please.
We are the Subcommittee on International Human Rights of the Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs and International Development. Today, December 6, 2011, we are holding our 13th hearing of the current sitting of Parliament.
Today we are continuing our study into the persecution of the Copt community in Egypt. I'll turn to that matter in a moment and to our witness, but first I want to alert you to the fact that at the end of this meeting I'd like to deal with a couple of unrelated items of business. Some were administrative, dealing with some budget issues. I don't want to be specific until we're in camera. One in particular deals with a potential witness. I want to discuss it with you in camera. I suggest we do it at the end so we don't have to clear out our witness and bring him back in. That would be my suggestion.
Mr. Sweet.
