Welcome to the Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights meeting number 15. The orders of the day are, pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), the study of supplementary estimates (C), votes 5c and 20c.
Committee members, as you see, there is no actual voting for us to do as the last supply day was announced for the Monday we get back, by which, based on this calendar, these subsidies will be deemed reviewed by this committee. But that doesn't mean we cannot question the minister and his staff on those issues.
I'm going to be up front with everyone in terms of timing. We have the minister for half an hour. There will be a bell around noon, the half-hour bell, and then there will be a vote, which normally takes about 10 minutes. So the vote would be over at about 20 minutes to, and they're normally late, so about a quarter to. So, to be honest with you, we're not coming back for five minutes, so we have this half hour with the minister.
The minister will start with his opening statement, and then we'll do one round for sure before the bells start to ring.
Yes?
