I call the meeting to order.
This is meeting number 54 of the Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights. Today is Monday, March 21, 2011.
Before we get into our agenda, there has been a request that we add one item to the agenda, which is consideration of committee business. Is there is any objection to adding 15 minutes to the end of our meeting? That would be 15 minutes before the end of the meeting, after we've considered the draft report on organized crime.
There are no objections? Okay. We'll tack on 15 minutes at the end for that.
If you look at your agenda, you'll see that we're continuing our review of Bill C-4, An Act to amend the Youth Criminal Justice Act and to make consequential and related amendments to other Acts.
Just as a note, during the second hour we will go in camera to continue our drafting of the organized crime report.
We have with us two witnesses on Bill C-4. First of all, coming all the way from Saskatchewan and the Rural Municipality of Beaver River, we have its reeve, Murray Rausch. Welcome.
We also have with us, as an individual, Ms. Thérèse McCuaig. Welcome to you as well.
I think you've been told that each of you has 10 minutes for your presentation. Then we'll open the floor to questions from our members.
Reeve, why don't you start?
