Thank you. Welcome to the witnesses. I will now open the floor to general comments on the bill, if there are any. Please restrict comments more to the bill, not so much to committee travel and things like that. Do we have any general comments on bill 38? Everything has been said, I guess.

All right, committee, we will move into a clause-by-clause review of the bill. We will defer the bill and title until after consideration of the clauses. We have 101 clauses, so if committee is okay with it, I will move the clauses in groups of approximately 10. Does committee agree?

Thank you, Mr. Testart. I just want to take a moment here to welcome all of the visitors that we have up in the gallery. It is rare that we have so many observers taking in our proceedings. It is clear that there is a lot of public interest in this bill. I just want to welcome everyone.
