EVIDENCE
Monday, February 4, 2013
[Recorded by Electronic Apparatus]
(1530)
[Translation]
Honourable members of the committee,
[English]
I see a quorum. We can now proceed to the election of the chair.
[Translation]
Pursuant to Standing Order 106(2), the chair of the committee must be a member of the government party.
[English]
I am ready to receive motions for chair.
Madame Boivin.
[Translation]
Thank you.
I want to welcome everyone, especially the new members of the committee, as we enter 2013.
I would like to nominate my colleague, Mike Wallace.
Are there any further motions?
[English]
Is it the pleasure of the committee to adopt the motion?
(Motion agreed to)
The Clerk: I declare the motion carried and Mr. Wallace duly elected chair of the committee.
Some hon. members: Hear, hear!
[Translation]
Thank you, Ms. Boivin.
[English]
We're going to do this relatively quickly.
I appreciate that you guys didn't meet last week while I was away. That was nice.
On Wednesday we have the potential for the minister to come before us for the first hour to start the discussion on Bill S-9. The second hour would be for the officials.
I need unanimous consent for that to happen. After that, we will adjourn this meeting and then begin the meeting of the subcommittee on agenda and procedure.
Could I have a motion for unanimous consent for that?
I so move that we start consideration of Bill S-9 on Wednesday, with the Minister of Justice coming for the first hour and the officials for the second hour.
That's carried, so I will conclude this meeting. Those who are not on the subcommittee on agenda and procedure can leave.
