EVIDENCE

Monday, February 4, 2013

[Recorded by Electronic Apparatus]

(1530)

[Translation]

The Clerk of the Committee (Mr. Jean-François Pagé):
    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]

    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.
The Clerk:
    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]

The Chair (Mr. Mike Wallace (Burlington, CPC)):
    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?
Ms. Kerry-Lynne D. Findlay (Delta—Richmond East, CPC):
    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.
The Chair:
     Are there any questions or comments? Are we all in agreement?
    (Motion agreed to)
The Chair:
     That's carried, so I will conclude this meeting. Those who are not on the subcommittee on agenda and procedure can leave.
Ms. Kerry-Lynne D. Findlay:
     Replacing Mr. Goguen on that subcommittee just for today is Dan Albas.
The Chair:
     Okay.
    This meeting is adjourned.
    Thank you very much.
