Our work in AEFA - Currently the committee is undertaking a study on the Canadian foreign service and elements of the foreign policy machinery within Global Affairs Canada. We have also been briefed on the current situation in the Ukraine, and received a number of pieces of legislation, in including Bill S-9, An Act to amend the Chemical Weapons Convention Implementation Act.

Our work in Rules - The Rules Committee is unlike other committees in that it does not receive legislation. Instead, the committee propose, on its own authority, amendments to the Rules, which govern the deliberative operations of the Senate and its committees and guide the conduct of parliamentary business. This committee plays an important role as the Senate seeks to reform and modernize itself to represent a 21st century Canada.
