I see a quorum.
Honourable members of the committee, I must inform the members that the clerk of the committee can only receive motions for the election of the chair. I may not receive other types of motions, nor entertain points of order, nor participate in any debate.
We may now proceed to the election of the chair. Pursuant to Standing Order 106(2), the chair must be a member of the government party. I'm ready to receive motions for the chair.
I see Mr. McKinnon.
