CHAIRMAN

Hon. Kevin Murphy

 

 

MR. CHAIRMAN: Order, please. It looks like everybody is accounted for. We’ll get our Special Committee of the House of Assembly Management Commission under way. For the purposes of the record we'll go around the table. State your name and your constituency and if you are substituting for a fellow caucus member.

 

[The committee members and staff introduced themselves.]

 

MR. CHAIRMAN: Thank you very much. This meeting arose based on our last Management Commission meeting when the Auditor General presented their estimates. There were several questions and the committee agreed to defer, pending some further information being requested from the A.G.'s Office, which was promptly supplied and circulated to the committee members.

 

Our only item of business today is to review the 2018-19 estimates for the Auditor General's Office and consider the additional information provided. With that, I'll look for a motion. Mr. Gordon Wilson.

 

MR. GORDON WILSON: Mr. Chairman, I move that this committee recommend the A.G.'s estimates to Treasury Board and ask for it to review the request of additional funding of up to $315,000.

 

MR. CHAIRMAN: Can I have a seconder? Seconded by Geoff MacLellan.

 

Is there any discussion or questions?

 

Would all those in favour of the motion please say Aye. Contrary minded, Nay.

 

The motion is carried.

 

With that, the meeting is adjourned.

 

[The committee adjourned at 12:18 p.m.]
