I want to thank all the witnesses for their appearance here today and for taking the questions. The committee will take the matter under advisement, and we will be issuing a report in due course.
Colleagues, we're now going to proceed to the motion Mr. Wrzesnewskyj made at the last meeting that the protocol we've developed over the last number of months be adopted by the committee. I will read it:
That the Protocol for appearance of Accounting Officers before the Standing Committee on Public Accounts, be adopted by this Committee as the interim protocol governing the appearance of Accounting Officers before this Committee pending the adoption of a final Protocol and that it be tabled in the House of Commons as the Thirteenth report of the Standing Committee on Public Accounts.
I am prepared to entertain five interventions of two minutes each. Then I'd like to put the vote.
Would anybody like to comment?
