Great. The budget is adopted.
Pursuant to the order of reference of the House of October 3, 2025, the committee is meeting on its study of Bill C‑8, an act respecting cyber security, amending the Telecommunications Act and making consequential amendments to other acts.
I would like to welcome the witnesses, who will answer questions if necessary.
From the Department of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness, we have Richard Bilodeau, senior assistant deputy minister, national security and cybersecurity branch; and Kelly‑Anne Gibson, director, national security and cybersecurity branch.
From the Department of Industry, we have Andre Arbour, director general, telecommunications and Internet policy branch; and Wen Kwan, director general, spectrum and telecommunications sector.
From the Communications Security Establishment, we have Stephen Bolton, director general, strategic policy; and Richard Larose, principal adviser on cyber security.
As you can see, we have six witnesses with us today.
We will now move to the clause-by-clause consideration of the bill.
(On clause 2)
That said, the last time, we ended the meeting on consideration of BQ‑7, which would normally take us to CPC‑36, except that there was a notice of motion on BQ‑7.1.
Will anyone move that amendment?
Mrs. DeBellefeuille, you have the floor.
