Good afternoon to all of you. Sorry we started a few minutes late, but we had votes, so we're trying to make the best of it.
Thank you so much for joining us on this important study. We're looking at violence against women, which is something on which all of you have so much information to provide.
I would like to welcome, as our second panel today, the London Abused Women's Centre and Jennifer Dunn; La Fédération des maisons d’hébergement pour femmes and Manon Monastesse; and SOS violence conjugale and Claudine Thibaudeau. Thank you so much for coming in today.
Each of the panellists will be provided five minutes for opening statements. You'll see this lovely little pen giving you a sign to wrap up in 15 seconds, and then we'll be going to our rounds of questions.
Jennifer, I'm going to start with you, for five minutes.
