Committee members, welcome.
We are continuing our study on the economic security of women.
We have with us Dr. Janet Fast, who is the coordinator of research on aging policies and practices. We also have Sheila Konanur of the AWIC Community and Social Services and Cecilia Diocson from the National Alliance of Philippine Women in Canada.
We will start off with Sheila.
I've spoken to all of you. You have ten minutes to present, but if you wish to take less time, this will give the committee members more of an opportunity to question you.
We would like to finish off at five o'clock, because we have a report to go through.
Ms. Konanur, please start. Thank you.
