That the presence of all members of the subcommittee is necessary to constitute a meeting; and

That the subcommittee be composed of the following members: the Chair as Chair, Mr. Barrett, Ms. Pendergast and Mr. Tabuns; and

That substitution be permitted on the subcommittee.

The Acting Chair (Mr. Kevin Daniel Flynn): Very good. Thank you. Any comments? Any discussions?
