Order. Good afternoon, everybody.
Welcome to the 39th meeting here at the Standing Committee on the Status of Women for our study on women and pension security.
We have with us today, from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, Edward Whitehouse, head of pension policy analysis, social policy division; from Towers Perrin, James Pierlot, senior consultant, and Steve Bonnar, principal; and as an individual, Beverley Smith, member of the Care of the Child Coalition.
We will commence. We later have a motion to deal with, so we will have to stop for that sometime after 5 p.m.
Welcome to all of you. Welcome from the world of technology. We're glad you could all make it.
We will begin the meeting with presentations from our witnesses. You have 10 minutes, and we'll try to keep you within that timeframe. I'm sure we'll have a number of questions.
We'll ask the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development to begin.
