I see a quorum. We can proceed with the election of the chair.

I'm ready to receive motions to that effect.
It is moved by Mrs. Neville that Mrs. Fry be elected as chair of this committee.
Are there any other nominations?
There are no other nominations. Is it the pleasure of the committee to adopt this motion?
Some hon. members: Agreed.
The Clerk: I declare the motion carried and Mrs. Fry to be the duly elected chair of the committee.
Some hon. members: Hear, hear!
We have to move to the election of the vice-chairs.
Do I have any nominations for vice-chair from the government side?
Mrs. Wong.

Anyway, it wouldn't have been from the right party, so we're fine as is.

The Clerk: Now we need a nomination for the other vice-chair.
[Translation]

Are there any other nominations for vice-chair from the opposition?
