Thank you, and good afternoon, everyone. Welcome to the Standing Committee on Transport, Infrastructure and Communities, meeting number 17.
The orders of the day, pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), are the examination of departmental expenditure plans.
Joining us today is Yaprak Baltacioglu, deputy minister. I know that you have guests with you. If you'll introduce them, and then make your presentation, then we'll go to questions.
Again, welcome.
