Thank you very much.
This concludes the first hour of our meeting.
On behalf of the members of the committee and on my own behalf as well, I would like to thank the witnesses. Appearing before the committee were the Hon. Ginette Petitpas Taylor, Minister of Veterans Affairs and Associate Minister of National Defence; Mr. Paul Ledwell, deputy minister; Ms. Sara Lantz, assistant deputy minister, chief financial officer and corporate services; and, by videoconference, Mr. Steven Harris, assistant deputy minister, service delivery branch.
We'll suspend for a few moments while we test the connection of new witnesses. We'll be back in about four minutes.
