[English]

    Honourable members, I see a quorum.
    Pursuant to Standing Order 107(2), our first order of business is the election of the chair. I am ready to receive motions to this effect.
    Mr. Merrifield.
    I nominate Dean Allison.
    Dean Allison is nominated. Are there any other motions?
    Nominations are closed.
    The motion by Mr. Merrifield, seconded by Mr. Benoit,

[Translation]

    propose que M. Allison soit élu président du comité.

[English]

Is it agreed?
    (Motion agreed to)
    The Clerk: Mr. Allison is elected.
    Some hon. members: Hear, hear!
    The Clerk: Ladies and gentlemen, we will now proceed to the election of the vice-chairs. Can I invite nominations?
    I nominate Ms. Sgro.
    Mr. Benoit is proposing Ms. Sgro. Are there other nominations?
    I have a motion by Mr. Benoit, seconded by Mr. Schellenberger, that Madame Sgro be elected vice-chair. Is it agreed?
    (Motion agreed to)
    The Clerk: I invite Mr. Allison to take the chair.
    We're going to move to set up the subcommittee of committee budgets. The subcommittee will be comprised of the chair and the vice-chair, and then we'll need five additional individuals.
     I want to mention who those individuals were before. They were Mr. Merrifield, Mr. Lauzon, Mr. Hanger, Mr. Wappel, and Mr. Szabo. I don't know if we want to proceed in the same fashion with those individuals and, if that's the case, whether those people want to remain.
    Some hon. members: Agreed.
    The Chair: Okay. I'll propose that we have Mr. Szabo, Mr. Wappel, Mr. Merrifield, Mr. Lauzon, and Mr. Hanger, in addition to Ms. Sgro and me. Is that all right?
    Some hon. members: Agreed.
    The Chair: We're now going to move in camera. We want to look at some of the financing of committee activities.
