I'd like to bring this meeting to order. This is the sixth meeting of the Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security. We're continuing our study of prison farm closures.
I would like to welcome to our committee quite a number of presenters.
Ms. Dowling, would you mind starting?
We will have all of you limit your comments so that we can complete them in about half an hour. That will mean from three to five minutes for each person, if that's okay. I've discussed this with some of you.
Introduce yourself, please, and give us your name. Tell us a little bit about yourself and your position. We'll keep moving around the table, because we have quite a large number of presenters.
I welcome all of you.
We'll begin with Ms. Dowling.
