The meeting will resume. This is the third part of meeting number 10 of the Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security. According to the orders of the day, we now have and welcome to the committee, the Minister of Public Safety, the Honourable Stockwell Day.
I would like to ask the media to please vacate the room. I believe this is still going to be televised, so you'll have to pick it up another way.
According to the procedures that we have established at this committee, we'll ask the minister to give us his statement of approximately 10 minutes, and that will be followed by questions from the opposition and government MPs on the committee.
Welcome, sir, to the committee. You may now begin your statement.
