Thank you very much, Mr. Vaughn, and thank you to both you and Ms. Fraser for the report and the work that your department does.
I'm going to interrupt normal proceedings right here now to deal with a motion, just to clear the record here before I forget. The steering committee had a very brief meeting before this meeting and we have selected four chapters for study by this committee.
I'm just going to read the motion:
That the Committee hold hearings on the following chapters from the fall 2009 Report of the Auditor General of Canada: Emergency Management, Public Safety Canada, Chapter 7, Chapter 8, Strengthening Aid Effectiveness, Canadian International Development Agency, Chapter 1, Evaluate the Effectiveness of Programs and Chapter 5, Acquiring Military Vehicles for use in Afghanistan.
We may be doing other chapters, and of course the steering committee and this committee can revisit that after the break, but that is the motion so moved by Mr. Christopherson.
(Motion agreed to)
