I welcome our guests to the committee. I am particularly interested in hearing any suggestions that they might make to strengthen the recommendations in the report before it goes to the Chamber. I am particularly interested in the complaints handling system of the DPC. Many constituents tell me they feel they are not getting anywhere with issues they have and they find it very difficult to deal with the tech companies. There was a question about the new commissioners. According to the legislation, there can be up to three commissioners. It is an attempt to have more expertise in order that we can be better informed. I welcome our guests and look forward to the discussion afterwards. Hopefully, we can strengthen the regulation for ordinary citizens as much as anybody else.
