Good afternoon. Thank you for being here.
I now call to order meeting number 42 of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security.
Before we resume our study of Bill C‑22, I want to ask the committee to consider the supplementary budget the clerk sent out to members a few hours ago. It's an estimate of the committee's financial needs. Obviously, the amounts listed are estimates, so the actual amounts could be lower. If so, any unspent funds will go back to the Liaison Committee, as you know.
You've probably seen the budget proposal by now.
Are there any questions about it?
Is it the pleasure of the committee to adopt the proposed budget?
