The Chair Conservative Garry Breitkreuz

I'd like to bring this meeting to order. This is the Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security. This is meeting number 15, and today we are going to get a report from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police on their management and operation.

I would like to welcome to the committee, from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, the Commissioner, Mr. William Elliott.

Welcome, sir. We are honoured to have you here this afternoon.

The usual practice of this committee is to allow you an opening statement of approximately 10 minutes, and then we'll have questions and comments for you for the remainder of our time here.

Welcome, sir, and when you're ready, you may begin.
