The meeting is called to order.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this meeting of the Standing Committee on Natural Resources. Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), today, we are holding a briefing on the Major Projects Management Office.
We are welcoming two witnesses from the Department of Natural Resources: Jim Clarke, Director General of the Major Projects Management Office; and Terence Hubbard, Director General of Policy at the Major Projects Management Office.
Ladies and gentlemen, we will start with a presentation by the representatives of the major projects management office, which will be followed by a period of questions.
We do expect the arrival of the regular chairman sometime over the next few minutes, at which point he will wrestle me to take over the chair, I'm sure.
Gentlemen, welcome. Please go ahead.
