Art Hanger at the Justice and Human Rights Committee

We'll do this, Mr. Cotler. At the end of this meeting, at the end of this time, at 15 minutes before 5:30, there's some business that this committee has to deal with. We will then bring that point up one more time. In the meantime, we have witnesses to hear.

I'd like to welcome the Judicial Compensation and Benefits Commission representatives: Mr. McLennan, Mr. Cherniak, and Ms. Chambers. Also, from the Office of the Commissioner for Federal and Judicial Affairs, we have Mr. Gourdeau and Mr. Osborne.

Thank you for appearing.

I know our time is limited. I really apologize for the shortness of it, but sometimes things are beyond our control. I know you have two presentations to make briefly.

If you could begin, who will be speaking for the Judicial Compensation and Benefits Commission? Mr. McLennan, please begin.
