The committee met at 11:38 a.m.

Committee Report to the House

R. Fleming (Chair): Members, we're here to consider the report to the Legislative Assembly, our annual summary of activities. Because this is a report that has not been received yet by the Legislature, it's our practice to consider this item of business in private session, so I'll ask for a motion to move in camera.

We'll now move the meeting in camera, with thanks to the comptroller general and our assistant Auditor General, Morris Sydor. Enjoy the rest of the afternoon.

The committee continued in camera from 11:39 a.m. to 12 noon.

[R. Fleming in the chair.]

R. Fleming (Chair): We're back in public session.

R. Hawes: I would move that the report as amended through our discussion would be the report that is tabled in the Legislature tomorrow afternoon.

Motion approved.

R. Fleming (Chair): Then I actually need a separate motion that says that the Chair move the report to the House as soon as possible.

R. Thorpe (Deputy Chair): I make it.

Motion approved.

R. Fleming (Chair): Now a motion to adjourn.

The committee adjourned at 12:01 p.m.
