The committee met at 10:08 a.m.
Election of Chair and Deputy Chair
S. Sourial (Committee Clerk): Good morning, committee members. Thank you. My apologies, again, for being late on the conference call.
As this is the first meeting of the Special Committee to Review the Personal Information Protection Act of the third session, my first order of business is to elect a Chair.
I’m looking for nominations for the position of Chair.
D. Bing: Mike Bernier.
S. Sourial (Committee Clerk): Doug has nominated Mike.
Any further nominations? Any further nominations? Asking a third time, any further nominations?
Seeing none, Mike, do you accept the position?
M. Bernier: Yes, thank you.
S. Sourial (Committee Clerk): You are Chair. Congratulations. Over to you for the election of the Deputy Chair.
[M. Bernier in the chair.]
M. Bernier (Chair): Thank you, everybody, for the position of Chair again.
Now we need to do the election and our process here for the Deputy Chair.
Do I have a nomination for the Deputy Chair?
M. Hunt: I’ll nominate George.
M. Bernier (Chair): So we have the nomination for George Heyman. Is there any other nomination? A second time for nomination? Calling a third?
George, will you accept?
G. Heyman: Yes, I will. Thank you.
M. Bernier (Chair): Congratulations, George. You continue on as Deputy Chair. Thank you very much.
With that, the only other thing on the agenda was any other business.
Next Committee Meeting
M. Bernier (Chair): I know everybody has meetings to get going to. The purpose of this was basically to be able to convene and have the Chair and the vice-Chair so then we could start communicating to work on setting up the next meeting and calling back presenters to try to get that started again.
Is there any other comment anybody wanted to add?
G. Heyman (Deputy Chair): Are we able to perhaps set up a similar kind of meeting that we had to cancel for the week that we’re back?
M. Bernier (Chair): That’s exactly what I think we’re going to look at. So I think the direction will be back to the Clerk’s office to work with us over the next couple of days or next week to try to set up that meeting.
Susan, is that correct?
S. Sourial (Committee Clerk): Yes. I will confer with the Chair and Deputy Chair. We’ll pick some dates, and I will canvass committee members as to their availability on the dates that the Chair and Deputy Chair have identified.
M. Bernier (Chair): Excellent. So we’ll be able to do that over e-mail in the next short while. It’s more than likely our next meeting, then…. Everyone will be back when we’re in session in the Legislature, which is obviously the most convenient, in the next week or two.
Hearing no other business, a motion to adjourn the meeting.
Motion approved.
M. Bernier (Chair): Thank you very much, everybody. We are now adjourned.
The committee adjourned at 10:12 a.m.
