Please wait until I recognize you before starting to speak. As always, all comments should go through the Chair. Are there any questions before we begin. No? Okay.

On the agenda is committee business. Are there any motions? MPP Thanigasalam, please.

Mr. Vijay Thanigasalam: I move that the committee enter closed session for the purpose of organizing committee business.

The Chair (Ms. Laurie Scott): We’re just going to put the motion on the screen here, please, and then we’ll entertain any discussions or comments in a moment.
