Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Mr. McGuinty for coming and talking to us.
The first question I have is regarding the UIPU selection of these studies. I had a glance at the report and noticed that of the 13 cases you've documented in that report, six are from Africa, two from the Americas, two from Asia, one from Europe and one from the Middle East.
I understand, of course, that different areas of the world have implemented varying levels of democracy and of your focus on how parliamentarians have been treated or their rights been violated. Can you highlight how these cases are being studied and what the selection criteria are?
