I
would
like
to
call
this
meeting
to
order.
I
would
like
to
welcome
all
members,
staff
and
guests
to
our
meeting
of
the
select
special
Ombudsman
and
public
interest.
Commissioner
search
committee,
my
name
is
Miranda
Rosen,
the
MLA
for
band
of
can
ask
us,
and
the
chair
of
this
committee
I
will
ask
the
members
and
those
joining
the
committee
at
the
table
as
well
as
online,
introduce
themselves
for
the
record.
So
we'll
start
in
the
room,
and
then
we
will
move
online.
B
Okay,
before
we
turn
to
the
business
in
hand,
just
a
few
operational
items
unless
we
move
in
camera,
these
committee
proceedings
are
being
live
streamed
on
the
internet
and
broadcast
on
Alberta
assembly.
Tv
members
participating
remotely
should
ensure
they
are
prepared
to
speak
or
vote
when
called
upon
and
video
conference.
Participants
are
asked
whenever
possible
to
have
the
cameras
on
when
speaking.
Please
set
your
cell
phones
and
other
devices
to

for
the
duration
of
the
meeting.
Moving
on.
B
A
B
I
don't
know,
and
all
opposed
that
motion
is
carried
moving
on
to
the
approval
of
our
minutes
from
the
previous
meeting.
Are
there
any
errors
or
omissions
to
note
in
those
minutes
and
seeing
none?
What
a
member
then
move
the
approval
of
the
minutes
as
distributed
I
would
like
to
move.
B
It
looks
moved
by
Mr
Singh
that
the
minutes
of
the
December
1st
2022
meeting
of
the
select
special
Ombudsman
and
public
interest
commissioner
search
committee
be
approved
as
distributed
all
in
favor
in
the
room
and
all
opposed
and
moving
online,
all
in
favor,
aye
and
all
opposed
that
motion
is
carried
moving
on
to
deliberations
as
we
continue
with
the
recruitment
process
for
the
positions
of
Ombudsman
and
public
interest.
Commissioner,
it
would
be
appropriate
to
continue
our
discussions
in
camera
in
order
to
maintain
the
confidentiality
of
the
applicants.
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
B
King
looks
as
though
we
are
ready
to
return
to
the
record,
and
we
have
answered
here
so
having
moved
back
onto
the
record.
I
am
wondering
if
there
is
a
member
who
would
sorry
actually
does
anyone
have
any
comments
regarding
the
draft
report
for
the
committee
and
seeing
none,
then
I
will
ask
for
someone
to
move
the
motion
to
adopt
the
report
and
make
a
recommendation
to
the
assembly,
and
that
motion
should
now
be
on
the
screen
for
everyone's
viewing.
B
That
said,
with
the
report
now
on
the
screen:
okay,
sing,
perfect,
okay,
so
moved
by
MLA
Singh
that
the
select
special
Ombudsman
and
public
interest.
Commissioner
search
committee
a
approved.
The
draft
report
dated
December
2
2022
B,
recommend
to
the
Legislative
Assembly
that
I
Kevin
Brzezinski
be
recommended
for
an
appointment
to
the
position
of
Ombudsman
and
public
interest.
Commissioner
for
a
five-year
term
commencing
on
December,
30th,
2022
and
II,
the
speaker
be
authorized
to,
on
its
behalf,
enter
this
into
this
enumeration
agreement
with
P
Point
d,
as
it
relates
to
his
appointment.
B
C
Thank

Yes,
with
with
the
report
having
been
accepted,
I'm
we're
ready
to
send
out
a
news
release
announcing
Mr,
brzezinski's
appointment
or
the
recommendation
of
this
committee
to
the
assembly
that
he
be
appointed.
B
Can
you
get
a
mover,
Mr,
Williams
submoved
by
MLA
Williams
that
the
select
special
Ombudsman
and
public
interest?
Commissioner
search
committee

draft
media

social

motion
is

is

Moving

business.
B
Today
will
be
the
last
meeting
for
this
committee.
Once
we
have
once
we
report
to
the
assembly
this
afternoon
we
will
have
completed
our
mandate
so
to
ensure
that
we
leave
a
complete
record
of
our
work.
The
committee
could
consider
authorizing
a
process
specifically
for
approving
the
minutes
from
today.
One
method
that
has
been
used
by
other
committees
in
the
past
has
been
to
authorize
the
chair
to
approve
the
final
minutes
after
the
draft
version
has
been
distributed
to
other
committee
members
for
comment.
B
B
Thank
You
by
Emily
Williams
that
the
select
special,
Ombudsman
and
public
interest
commissioner
search
committee
authorized
chair
to
approve
the
minutes
of
the
December
5th
2022
meeting
after
a
copy
has
been
distributed
to
committee
members
for
comment.
Is
there
any
discussion
on
this
motion
seeing
none?
We
would
call
the
vote
all
those
in
favor
of
the
emotion
in
the
room
and
all
opposed
and
moving
online.
All
those
in
favor.
A
B
All
opposed
do
any
committee
members
have
any
other
items
for
a
discussion.
B
Seeing
none
as
previously
noted
this
will
be
the
last
meeting
of
this
committee.
I
would
like
to
thank
all
of
the
members
who
have
served
on
this
committee
for
your
contributions
to
the
recruitment
process
over
the
past
several
months.
I
would
also
like
to
thank
all
the
candidates
who
submitted
their
applications.
We've
had
an
impressive
group
of
applicants
to
consider
and
I
actually
recognize
now
before
I
move
to
close
this
meeting,
that
I
did
not
state
whether
the
last
motion
kit
was
carried
or
defeated
so
just
for
the
record.
That
motion
was
unanimously
carried.
B
But
yes,
in
conclusion,
I
just
want
to
thank
everyone,
both
candidates
and
committee
members
and
staff
alike.
We
could
not
have
gotten
here
today
without
all
of
your
help
and
participation,
and
especially
in
particular
to
those
staff
who've
been
supporting
us
for
months.
They
want
to
give
a
special
thank
you
to
trishmills.lrb,
Marcel,
Samara
Wong
from
executive
search
for
their
time
and
the
professional
guidance
provided
throughout
this
recruitment
process.
B
That
is
all
for
our
committee.
We
have
officially
finished
our
mandate,
so
all
we
need
to
do
is
adjourn
once
and
for
all.
So
is
there
a
member
who
would
like
to
move
a
motion
to
a
gerund,
Mr
Villas?
We
would
buy
MLA
billis
that
the
December
5th
2022
meeting
of
the
select
special
Ombudsman
and
public
interest,
commissioner
search
committee
be
adjourned
all
in
favor
in
the
room,
all
opposed
and
moving
online,
all
in
favor,
bye
and
all
opposed.
