Good afternoon, colleagues. Welcome back.
This is meeting number 96 of the Standing Committee on Public Accounts on Thursday, May 3, 2018. Today we are here to consider the special examination report on the National Capital Commission of the fall 2017 reports of the Auditor General of Canada.
We have with us the Auditor General of Canada, Mr. Michael Ferguson, and from the Office of the Auditor General, Margaret Haire, principal. From the National Capital Commission, we're pleased to have Mr. Marc Seaman, chairperson, board of directors, and Mark Kristmanson, chief executive officer.
To begin, we'll invite our Auditor General to make his comments, and we look forward to good questions thereafter.
