I would like to make a few comments for the benefit of the members and witnesses.

For those participating by video conference, click on the microphone icon to activate your mic, and please mute yourself when you are not speaking.

All comments should be addressed through the chair. With regard to a speaking list, the committee clerk and I will do the best we can to maintain the speaking order for all members, whether they are participating virtually or in person.
Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), and the motion adopted by the committee on Monday, November 27, 2023, the committee will resume its study of the implementation of a red dress alert.
