Evidence of meeting #7 for Official Languages in the 39th Parliament, 1st Session. (The original version is on Parliament’s site, as are the minutes.) The winning word was vice-chair.
The Clerk of the Committee Mr. Mark D'Amore
Good morning. I believe we have a quorum
Since there's been a change in membership, the committee no longer has a vice-chair representing the Official opposition.
Therefore, our first order of business is to elect a vice-chair representing the Official opposition, in accordance with the Standing Orders. I am ready to receive motions to that effect.

Are there any other nominations?
If not, I declare Mr. Pablo Rodriguez duly elected first vice-chair of the committee.
I invite the Chairman, Mr. Guy Lauzon, to take the chair.
