Good morning, everyone. We're here today at meeting number nine of the Standing Committee on Natural Resources.
Today we're dealing with, pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), a study of nuclear safety issues, including safety issues at the Chalk River nuclear reactor. We have appearing as witnesses today the Honourable Gary Lunn, Minister of Natural Resources, and Cassie Doyle, the deputy minister.
Welcome, Minister. I'm looking forward to your presentation. Immediately following your presentation we'll go to questioning, starting with the official opposition.
Please go ahead, Mr. Minister.
