Thank you very much for joining us today, Ms. Lank. I am very pleased to have you here. I want to sincerely congratulate you on your accomplishments in your life and work. I am sure that you will contribute tremendously to the building of the great institution of the Library of Parliament.
In your presentation, you briefly talked about your intention to consult. In the past, you have consulted parliamentarians. My question mainly concerns new members of the House of Commons. I would like to know how you will consult members and whether that will be followed by a report and concrete actions. I know that you are new to this position, so I would like to point out that the way we proceeded before was perhaps adequate for a more theory-oriented world, but the institution is a bit different today. Parliamentarians would greatly benefit from receiving in-depth information and advice.
I would like to know what kind of consultations you will undertake and how you plan to go about them. We sometimes want to undertake consultations, but people do not participate. If people don't know that certain services exist, they will use the resources of a partisan group, rather than those of a non-partisan group.
