Good afternoon, everyone. I call to order this meeting of the Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights. I'd like to welcome everybody.
I'd like to welcome our first witnesses. As I've explained to you, there has been a notice of motion put before the committee; that will go first today. We're going to come to you as soon as that motion is over. We appreciate your patience.
I shall turn to Mr. Cooper, who is putting forward a motion.
