Ladies and gentlemen, I'm going to call this meeting to order. We're the Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights. This is meeting number 65. It's a televised meeting. Pursuant to Standing Order 81(4), we are on the main estimates 2013-14. These are votes which we're able to vote on at the end of today's meeting, if we have time: votes 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35 and 50 under Justice, referred to this committee on Monday, February 25.
For the first hour, from 3:30 to 4:30, we have Minister Nicholson here to talk to us about the main estimates. He is joined by witnesses from the Department of Justice in the finance area. Then those witnesses from Justice will continue with us from 4:30 to 5:15. I remind members that bells will be going at 5:15. We will have a marathon voting session in the House of Commons this evening.
With that, Minister, the floor is yours.
