Colleagues, we are back in session.
We will welcome our new witnesses here today.
We have Lynda Clairmont, senior assistant deputy minister, national and cybersecurity branch. We have Ritu Banerjee, director of the intelligence policy division for the national and cybersecurity branch; and we have Mory Afshar, senior counsel, Citizenship and Immigration Canada legal services.
The three new witnesses are entitled to make a statement, should they wish. Otherwise, we will go directly to questions.
Are you all fine? Thank you very much.
We will go to rounds of questioning, then. We will start off with Mr. Carmichael, please, for seven minutes.
