I call this meeting to order.
Welcome to meeting number 11 of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Official Languages.
The committee is meeting on its study of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the government's ability to deliver information in both official languages.
Unfortunately, because of the deferred recorded divisions in the House of Commons this afternoon, only one group of witnesses will appear. I'd like to ask right away for the committee's consent to extend this meeting until 5:50 p.m., since the technical team is available.
Are there any objections to continuing our work until 5:50 p.m.?
Thank you very much.
Madam Clerk, are there any replacements and are there any members in the room with you?
