 I'm the chair of the Canada's control board. Today is July 1st, 2021. It's 931 and we're going to call this meeting to order. This is going to be a relatively brief meeting compared to our some of our other ones. Today the purpose is really to take public comment and then to go into executive session to review the 10 or so proposals that we received to provide consulting services to the board. We're going to join an executive session by Nellie and Bern Haer, our executive director. And we're going to adjourn immediately following executive session should take, we estimate about two hours. But I would like to approve the minutes from the meeting on June 24th. I think that they're posted to our website. They will be posted within like a minute or two. Okay. So I would, well, Julian Kyle, you reviewed the draft minutes. I have. I take a motion to approve the minutes from June 24th. I'll second. All in favor. Hi. Okay. I would say that we are live at the agency of agriculture 11616. Second floor conference room. We have been kind of a brought into the game of musical chairs. It's going on at the BGS. And so we actually will no longer be at 12 Baldwin Street sounding like we might have a different location that we can move into a little bit more quickly. So we will have a permanent physical location for folks. And it's likely a place where we can hold public meetings more regularly. So that's good news. Hopefully move in sometime next month. Or sometime this month, actually. I don't have any more of an update. So I'd be happy to take some public comment, which I think is next on our agenda. So if you have a public comment and you've joined us via the link and you're watching the video, if you could raise your virtual hands and I'll just call on you in the order that I see you. And then we'll move to the person on the phone next. Actually, all right. This is the people who joined us by the length. Are you seeing anyone now? I've got no one. Just give it a minute. Are we certain that everyone can hear? We tested this before. Okay. Good to check. Yeah. Tito, I see your hand up if you could just unmute yourself and if you'd like to join by video feel free. Yes. It's kind of tough to have any public comment. We don't really know what we're commenting on yet. Do we know who has applied for this position? Can we hear those names? I'm sorry. Can you kind of cut out at the end? You can repeat yourself. I was just hoping that maybe we could hear the name so that we could have something to publicly comment on. Like who is applying for this consulting job? You know, I'm not sure that kind of the ins and outs of Bulletin 3.5. If you want to make a public records request about the applicant, feel free. And then we'll just kind of get a better sense of what is not public about the people that apply. But if there's any other that you have at this time recognizing it's kind of open-ended, this is an opportunity for you to share any other information with us. Just my guess, I know that Vermont Cannabis Solutions has put their hat in the ring for this position and I definitely would back them. I think they're really great and really genuine and I think would do a great job here with that. Thank you. And I would just add Tito and for everyone else, we're not going to be making any decisions today. Today is really about reviewing the applications that have come in and seeing if we need to have any follow-up questions or conversations to kind of flesh out some of the proposals that we've seen and really identify what our need is and how we can meet that need. So we won't be making any decisions today. But again, if you want to submit a public records request, we'll figure out whether or not we can release the names of all the people that apply. Okay, cool. All right. Thanks, guys. Good luck. Thank you. Thank you. Anyone else for public comment? Okay. Well, we are going to now move to executive session. Again, we're not going to do anything except adjourn after our executive session. So people, feel free to stick around. But there won't be any substantive portions of our meeting after we leave the executive session. And again, we're going to go into executive session to review applications for people that have applied to be our consultants. We believe that those applications contain potentially proprietary information. We believe that premature general public knowledge could prejudice either our body or the people that applied. So we need to have a motion to enter into executive session. I'll move to an 30 second session. Noting that premature general public knowledge is going to place the public body or a person involved in substantial disadvantage. I'll second. Okay. All in favor? Aye. Aye. Okay. Nellie, could you please pause the recording? I will do so. Just one second. Meeting Executive Session is 11.36 a.m. on July 1st, 2021. And our last agenda item is to adjourn. So we're going to entertain a motion to adjourn. So moved. Seconded? All in favor? Aye. Aye. Okay. Nellie, could you just stop for a moment?
